The following standards for variable manufacturing overhead have been established for a company that makes only one product:

standard hours per unit of output 5.6 hours
standard variable overhead rate $12.00 per hour
the following data pertain to operations for the last month:

actual hours 2,600 hours
actual total variable overhead cost $31,330
actual output 400 units
what is the variable overhead spending variance for the month?

a $112 f
b $130 u
c $4,450 u
d $4,338 u

c $4,450 U

Explanation:

The computation of the Variable overhead spending variance  is shown below:

= (Standard variable overhead Rate × Actual Hour) - (Actual Rate × Actual Hour)

= ($12 × 400 units × 5.6 hours) - ($31,330)

= $26,880 - $31,330

= $4,450 Unfavorable

The (Actual Rate × Actual Hour) is also called as Actual variable overhead.
