Question
The following data relate to
Actual: | Variable factory overhead | $244,400 |
Fixed factory overhead | 70,000 | |
Standard: | 6,000 hrs. at $49 | 294,000 |
If productive capacity of 100% was 10,000 hours and the total factory overhead cost budgeted at the level of 6,000 standard hours was $322,000, determine the variable factory overhead Controllable Variance, fixed factory overhead volume variance, and total factory overhead cost variance. The fixed factory overhead rate was $7 per hour. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
Variance | Amount | Favorable/Unfavorable |
Controllable variance | $ | |
Volume variance | $ | |
