Radon Corporation manufactured 37,500 units during March. The following fixed overhead data pertain to March: Actual Static Budget Production 37,500 units 34,000 units Machine-hours 10,375 hours 10,200 hours Fixed overhead costs for March $213,200 $204,000 What is the fixed overhead production-volume variance?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$21,000 Unfavorable

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate fixed overhead absorption rate.

Fixed overhead absorption rate = Fixed overhead costs for March(Static budget) ÷ Production(Static budget)

= $204,000 ÷ $34,000

= $6 per unit

Fixed overhead production volume variance

= Amount actually applied - Amount budgeted

= ($6 × 37,500) - $204,000

= $225,000 - $204,000

= $21,000 Unfavorable
