specifically trying to understand this question:
What is the difference between activity variance and spending
variance? I know spending variance is diff between Flexible and
Actual, is activity variance same thing?
Let us know what both these terms mean
Activity variance
Activity variance is the difference between a revenue or cost item in the STATIC budget and the same item in the FLEXIBLE budget. Activity variance is solely due to the difference between the level of activity assumed in the budget and the actual level of activity in the flexible budget.
Spending variance
Spending variance is the variance between the actual and budgeted amount.

I'm trying to understand the difference between a solid sphere rotating with the axis through its center versus a solid sphere rotating and the axis tangent to the surface. I'd like help in having some examples so I can understand what moment of inertia to use when. For instance, if a solid sphere is rotating down a frictionless incline, would I use the first option because the sphere is rotating around it's own axis?
