Question - Managers of Wheldon Manufacturing are analyzing variable overhead variances for the fiscal period just ended. The flexible budget called for $80,000 in variable overhead but actual variable overhead was $95,000. In computing the overhead variances, Wheldon's management discovered that it had used 3,800 hours of direct labor, rather than the budgeted (Hours of direct labor is the single overhead driver of variable overhead). The standard variable overhead rate per hour of direct labor is $20.00. What is Wheldon's variable overhead spending variance?
