B. The standard budget has less chances to show deficit than the deficit in actual budget.

Explanation:

Standard Budget is the budget prepared on standard norms, based on standard capacity, generally the company wants to reach this quantum in each respect of targets defined in budget.

Whereas, actual budget is not a budget it is report card of actual performance, therefore, if any deficit has to occur it will occur in actual budget, and not in standard budget.

Therefore correct statement is

B. The standard budget has less chances to show deficit than the deficit in actual budget.
