    The question goes like this..

    You are provided a cost card
    The Fixed Overheard per unit = $2

    The Fixed overhead charged to each unit of the product is based on a monthly production level for product A of 500 units

    Last period actual level of activity was 750 units and the fixed overhead was $1700

    The question is to find the total fixed expenditure variance.

    If anyone knows the answer, please post the rationale too.

    Thanks

    • ☆☆☆☆

    budgeted fixed overhead=2*500=1000
    actual fixed overhead=1700
    expenditure variance=700 adverse.

    you should not find fixed overhead of 750 units for expenditure variance.
