Explanation / Answer

Problem 18.

Let us first calculate budgeted fixed overhead rate per hour.

Budgeted hours = Budgeted Volume x Direct Labour Hours per unit

= 288,000 x 2 = 576,000 hours

Budgeted Fixed Overhead Rate per hour = Budgeted fixed oveheads / Budget Volume

= 864,000 / 576,000

= 1.5 per hour

Applied Fixed Overhead = Standard Hours required to produce actual output x Budgeted Fixed Overhead Rate per hour

= (280,000 x 2) x 1.5

= 840,000

Therefore, the correct answer is option c. $840,000

Problem 19.

Fixed Overhead spending variance = Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted fixed overhead

= 872,000 - 864,000

= 8,000 Unfavorable

Therefore, the correct answer is option d. $8,000 U

Problem 20.

Fixed overhead volume variance = Absorbed Fixed overheads - Budgeted Fixed Overheads

  =Actual Output x FOAR* - Budgeted Output x FOAR*

* Fixed Overhead Absorption Rate per unit of output

= (280,000 x 2 x 1.5) - (288,000 x 2 x 1.5)

= -24,000 or 24,000 Unfavorable

Since none of the choices contain the above answer, therefore the correct answer is option a. None of these choices is correct
