Question

Shamrock manufacturing budgeted fixed overhead costs of? $2.75 per unit at an anticipated production level of? 1,350 units. in july shamrock incurred actual fixed overhead costs of? $4,400 and actually produced? 1,300 units. what is? shamrock's fixed overhead volume variance in? july?

Answer 1

We are asked to solve for the fixed budget variance given the Shamrock Manufacturing has the following values:
Total Production Units = 1,350
Overhead Cost per Unit = $2.75
Actual Fixed Overhead Cost = $4,400
Solving for Fixed Budget Variance (FBV), we have:
FBV = Actual Fixed Overhead Cost - Total Production*Overhead Cost per Unit
FBV = $4,400 - (1350 * $2.75)
FBV = $687.50

The answer is $687.50.
