The variable overhead rate variance is: c. $6,052 U.

Variable overhead rate variance

First step is to calculate variable component of the predetermined overhead rate using this formula

Variable component of the predetermined overhead rate= Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead/Budgeted hours

Let plug in the formula

Variable component of the predetermined overhead rate=$ 28,200/12,000 labor-hours

Variable component of the predetermined overhead rate=$2.35 per labor-hour

Second step is to calculate  variable overhead rate variance using this formula

Variable overhead rate variance=(AH×AR)-(AH×SR)

Let plug in the formula

Variable overhead rate variance= $ 26,967- ( 8,900 labor-hours×$2.35 per labor-hour)

Variable overhead rate variance= $ 26,967- $20,915

Variable overhead rate variance= $6,052 U (Unfavorable)

Therefore the variable overhead rate variance is: c. $6,052 U.
