a. Variable overhead rate variance = (AH × AR) - (AH × SR)
= AH × (AR - SR)
= 1,160 hours × ($6.80 per hour - $7.00 per hour)
= 1,160 hours × (-$0.20 per hour)
= $232 F
b. SH = 5,300 units × 0.20 hours per unit = 1,060 hours
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (AH × SR) - (SH × SR)
= (AH - SH) × SR
= (1,160 hours - 1,060 hours) × $7.00 per hour
= (100 hours) × $7.00 per hour
= $700 U
