eBook Calculating the Fixed Overhead Spending and Volume Variances Standish Company manufactures consumer products and provided the following information for the month of February: Units produced 131,100 Standard direct labor hours per unit 0.2 Standard fixed overhead rate (per direct labor hour) $2.30 Budgeted fixed overhead $64,700 Actual fixed overhead costs $68,100 26,700 Actual hours worked. Required: 1. Calculate the fixed overhead spending variance using the formula approach. 2. Calculate the volume variance using the formula approach. 3. What if 127,300 units had actually been produced in February? What impact would that have had? Indicate what the new variances would be below.
