If you are using Tor inside of the VPN tunnel the benefit would be that you could hide that you were using Tor from your local ISP (or any other local spies.)

If you chained a VPN (assuming OpenVPN/TCP etc) at the end of your Tor connection you would benefit by having the remote website not be able to tell that you were using Tor. Of course, they would see that you were using a VPN if it is a publically known one.

It all depends on your threat model I suppose.
