Answer:

a.

2.5%

b.

2.45%

Explanation:

The approximate real rate of return can be derived from nominal rate of return formula given below:

nominal rate of return=real rate of return+inflation rate

real rate of return=nominal rate of return-inflation rate

real rate of return= 4.7%-2.2%=2.5%

The exact real rate of return can be derived from exact real rate of return formula given below

real rate of return=(1+nominal rate of return)/(1+inflation rate)-1

real rate of return=(1+4.7%)/(1+2.2%)-1

real rate of return=1.02446184 -1=2.45%

Budgeted fixed overhead $ 26,000

Allocated fixed overhead $ 28,350

Standard overhead allocation rate $ 6.75

Standard direct labor hours per unit 2.1 DLHr

Actual output 2,000 units

Total Fixed Overhead Variance =  Budget Variance + Volume Variance

Budget Variance = Actual Fixed Overhead- Budgeted Fixed Overhead= $ 32,000- $ 26,000= $ 6000 unfavorable

Volume Variance = Budgeted Fixed Overhead- Allocated Fixed Overhead

Volume Variance= $ 26000-  ( Standard Fixed Overhead Rate * Standard Hours)

Volume Variance= $ 26000-  ( $ 6.75 * 2.1 * 2000)

Volume Variance= $ 26000- 28350 = 2350 favorable
