Answer:

Manufacturing overhead rate(spending) variance= $24,000 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Actual direct labor hours= 24,000

Octagon produced 8,000 units and incurred a variable overhead of $120,000.

The hours allowed per unit are 2. The standard variable overhead rate is $3.00 per direct labor hour.

To calculate the variable overhead spending variance, we need to use the following formula:

Manufacturing overhead rate(spending) variance= (standard rate - actual rate)* actual quantity

Actual rate= 120,000/24,000= 5

Manufacturing overhead rate variance=  (6 - 5)*24,000

Manufacturing overhead rate variance= $24,000 favorable
