Respuesta :

Answer:

$22,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

Auditory Company

Actual units produced: 13,000  

Actual fixed overhead incurred: $742,000  

Standard fixed overhead rate: $15 per hour  

Budgeted fixed overhead: $720,000  

Planned level of machine-hour activity: 48,000  

 

Fixed Budget Overhead Variance = Actual Fixed Overhead - Budgeted Fixed Overhead

Fixed Budget Overhead Variance =  $742,000 -$720,000 = $ 22,000 unfavorable
