Haha, this question is making my head spin! I'm just going to guess and pick A. The variable overhead expenditure variance is the over or under absorbed variable overhead.

I agree with you, it's definitely D. The variable overhead expenditure variance is the difference between the variable overheads incurred and the flexed budget allowance for variable overheads.
