    ASSESSMENT.

    PROCESS COSTING

    A favorable fixed overhead volume variance occurs if

    a. there is a favorable labor efficiency variance.

    b. there is a favorable labor rate variance.

    c. production is less than planned.

    d. production is greater than planned.

    ANS: D DIF: Easy OBJ: 7-3

    37. The fixed overhead application rate is a function of a predetermined activity level. If standard hours

    allowed for good output equal the predetermined activity level for a given period, the volume variance

    will be

    a. zero.

    b. favorable.

    c. unfavorable.

    d. either favorable or unfavorable, depending on the budgeted overhead.

    ANS: A DIF: Easy OBJ: 7-3


    38. Actual fixed overhead minus budgeted fixed overhead equals the

    a. fixed overhead volume variance.

    b. fixed overhead spending variance.

    c. noncontrollable variance.

    d. controllable variance.

    ANS: B DIF: Easy OBJ: 7-3

    39. Total actual overhead minus total budgeted overhead at the actual input production level equals
    the

    a. variable overhead spending variance.

    b. total overhead efficiency variance.

    c. total overhead spending variance.

    d. total overhead volume variance.

    ANS: C DIF: Easy OBJ: 7-3

    40. A favorable fixed overhead spending variance indicates that

    a. budgeted fixed overhead is less than actual fixed overhead.

    b. budgeted fixed overhead is greater than applied fixed overhead.


    c. applied fixed overhead is greater than budgeted fixed overhead.

    d. actual fixed overhead is less than budgeted fixed overhead.

    ANS: D DIF: Easy OBJ: 7-3

    41. An unfavorable fixed overhead volume variance is most often caused by

    a. actual fixed overhead incurred exceeding budgeted fixed overhead.

    b. an over-application of fixed overhead to production.

    c. an increase in the level of the finished inventory.

    d. normal capacity exceeding actual production levels
