Approach Company, which applies overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period just ended: Actual units produced: 14,800 Actual fixed overhead incurred: $791,000 Standard fixed overhead rate: $13 per hour Budgeted fixed overhead: $780,000 Planned level of machine-hour activity: 60,000 If Approach estimates four hours to manufacture a completed unit, the company's fixed-overhead volume variance would be:

10400 unfavorable

Explanation:

Firstly, we should note that the fixed overhead volume variance is the difference between the standard fixed overhead for actual output and the budgeted fixed overhead.

Budgeted fixed overhead = 780000

The standard fixed overhead for the actual output will be:

= Actual output × Number of hour per unit × the standard fixed overhead rate

= 14800 × 4 × 13

= 769,600

Then, the fixed overhead volume variance will be:

= 769600 - 780000

= 10400 Unfavorable
