Despite the volume falling in august, when we compare to budget, we have savings of $7 million in the agency cost. But partners payment cost is increased by $3 million from the budget level.

It's unclear. You're comparing "volume", "budget", and "cost", which are totally different things. I suggest you rewrite it in a clearer way.

Firstly sorry for the inconvenience caused
There are 2 things. I am trying to compare August budget vs actual 1) August volume (quantity) increased compared to budget but we have savings of 7 million in agency cost (Budget 25 million but actual 18 million).
2) though agency cost reduced but partners payment (its cost for using partners premises) cost is increased 3 million compared to budg

Our sales volume in August was larger than we projected in our budget, resulting in higher income by X million. In addition we had lower costs; a savings of 7 million in agency cost. (Budget 25 million but actual 18 million). This savings was partially offset by an increase in rent which was 3 million higher than budgeted. (partners payment budget 4 million but actually was 7 million.)
