Mr. Snow was extremely upset with the budget deficit. He immediately called you, the treasurer, to complain about the budget variance for the meal cost. He told you that the added dessert caused the meal cost to be $4,810($25,110-$20,300) over budget.

At the next budget meeting of the budget committee, I want you to explain what happened.
