8,280 hours of variable production overhead should cost (X $2)                          16,560

Variable production overhead expenditure variance                                             1,656(F)

Standard time allowed for one unit = 5,775 hours + 1,925 units = 3 hours

A

$7,500

B

$16,000

C

$17,000

D

$24.500

A cost centre had an overhead absorption rate of $4.25 per machine hour, based on a budgeted activity level of 12,400 machine hours.In the period covered by the budget, actual machine hours worked were 2% more than the budgeted hours and the actual overhead expenditure incurred in the cost centre was $56,389.What was the total over or under absorption of overheads in the cost centre for the period?

A

$1,054 over absorbed

B
