For the Houston refinery, the monthly fixed overhead budget is $8,000,000 for a planned outputs of 5,000,000 barrels. For September, the actual fixed cost was $8,750,000 for 5.100.000 barrels a. Determine the fixed overhead budget variance. $ 750,000 U b. If fixed overhead is applied on a per-barrel basis, determine the volume varlance $ 17.000 Check You have correctly selected 3 Partially correct Marks for this submission: 3.00/4.00.

Explanation / Answer

ans) 1. fixed ovrhead budget variance = Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted fixed overhead

= 8,750,000 - 8,000,000

= 750,000 U

2. Volume variance = Absorbed fixed overhead - Budgeted fixed overhead

Fixed overhead per barreal = 8,000,000 / 5,000,000 = 1.6

= 5,100,000 X 1.6 - 5,000,000 X 1.6

=8,160,000 - 8,000,000

=1,60,000 F
