Great allocates manufacturing overhead to production based on standard direct labor hours. Great reported the following actual results for 2024 : actual number of units produced, 1,000; actual variable overhead, $5,000; actual fixed overhead, $3,000; actual direct labor hours, 1,700. Read the requirements. Requirement 1. Compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances and fixed overhead cost and volume variances. Begin with the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances. Select the required formulas, compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances, and identify whether each variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). (Abbreviations used: AC= actual cost; AQ= actual quantity; FOH= fixed overhead; SC= standard cost; SQ = standard quantity; VOH= variable overhead.) Requirements 1. Compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances and fixed overhead cost and volume variances. 2. Explain why the variances are favorable or unfavorable. Data table
