Answer:

Option c is correct

 Fixed overhead cost variance  = $18,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

The fixed overhead costs variance is the difference between the absorbed overheads and actual fixed cost incurred

Absorbed fixed overhead =FOAR × actual output

FOAR - fixed overhead absorption rate = $8.00 per unit

Absorbed overhead = $8.00 per unit   × 40,000 =  $320000

Actual overhead cost                                                  $338,000

Fixed overhead cost variance                                   $18,000 unfavourable
