Acme Company’s production budget for August is 17,700 units and includes the following component unit costs: direct materials, $6.0; direct labor, $10.2; variable overhead, $6.2. Budgeted fixed overhead is $34,000. Actual production in August was 18,630 units. Actual unit component costs incurred during August include direct materials, $8.40; direct labor, $9.60; variable overhead, $7.00. Actual fixed overhead was $35,700. The standard fixed overhead application rate per unit consists of $2 per machine hour and each unit is allowed a standard of 1 hour of machine time. Required:Calculate the fixed overhead budget variance and the fixed overhead volume variance. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i. e., zero variance).)

a. $1,700 U

b. $3,260 F

Explanation:

a. Fixed over head budget variance = Actual fixed overhead - Budgeted fixed overhead

Actual fixed overhead = $35,700

Budgeted fixed overhead = $34,000

Fixed overhead budget variance = $35,700 - $34,000

= $1,700 U

b. Fixed overhead volume variance = Budgeted fixed overhead - Standard fixed overhead

Standard fixed overhead application rate = $2 per machine hr × 1hr

= $2

Budgeted fixed overhead = $34,000

Standard fixed overhead = Standard hours for actual output × Budgeted rate

= (18,630 units × 1hr) × $2

= $37,260

Fixed overhead volume variance

= $34,000 - $37,260

= 3,260 F

so i don't know what video you're talking about, but here's some stuff steve jobs gave as advice.

- love what you do.

- the worst thing that could happen might turn out to be the best thing that could happen.

- follow your heart and trust it knows where it's going.
