Budgeted fixed overhead expenditure (4,200 units x $4 per unit)???????????? 16,800

Fixed overhead expenditure variance?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? 700 (A)

The variance is adverse because the actual expenditure was higher than the amount budgeted.

Fixed overhead volume variance

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? $

Actual production at standard rate (5,000 x $4 per unit)???????????????????20,000

Budgeted production at standard rate (4,200 x $4 per unit)?????????????16,800

The variance is favourable because the actual volume of output was greater than the budgeted volume of output.

If you selected an incorrect option you misinterpreted the direction of one or both of the variances.
