Cold Products Corporation manufactured 27,000 ice chests during September. The variable overhead cost-allocation base is $11.75 per machine-hour. The following variable overhead data pertain to September: Actual BudgetedProduction 27,000 units 26,000 unitsMachine-hours 13,500 hours 7,800 hoursVariable overhead cost per machine-hour: $11.25 $11.75 What is the variable overhead efficiency variance

Respuesta :

Answer:

the variable overhead efficiency variance is -$63,450

Explanation:

The computation of the variable overhead efficiency variance is shown below:

= (Standard hours  - actual hours) × standard rate

= (27,000 units × 7,800 ÷ 26,000) - 13,500) × $11.75

= (8,100 hours - 13,500 hours) × $11.75

= -$63,450

Hence, the variable overhead efficiency variance is -$63,450

The same is to be considered by applying the above formula
