In the three-variance method of factory overhead analysis, _______ variance represents the difference between actual factory overhead incurred and budgeted factory overhead based on actual hours worked. A. quantity B. efficiency C. spending D. production-volume
Solution
Answer - C. Spending Variance.
Budgeted Factory Overhead based on actual hours worked= Actual hours x Standard Overhead Rate
Actual FactoryOverhead = Actual Hours x Actual Overhead Rate.
Spending Variance = Actual Hours x Standard Rate - Actual Hours x Standard Rate
= Actual Hours ( Standard Rate - Actual Rate)
So, From the Formula it is clear that this variance is occured due to change in rate from actual to standard.
Hence it is the spending varianance.

1. In the three-variance method of factory overhead analysis, _______ variance represents the
difference between actual factory overhead incurred and budgeted factory overhead based on
actual hours worked. A. quantity B. efficiency C. spending D. production-volume
Solution
Answer - C. Spending Variance.
Budgeted Factory Overhead based on actual hours worked= Actual hours x Standard Overhead
Rate
Actual FactoryOverhead = Actual Hours x Actual Overhead Rate.
Spending Variance = Actual Hours x Standard Rate - Actual Hours x Standard Rate
= Actual Hours ( Standard Rate - Actual Rate)
So, From the Formula it is clear that this variance is occured due to change in rate from actual to
standard.
Hence it is the spending varianance.
