Answer:

Rate variance = $250 favorable

Explanation:

<em>The variable overhead rate variance is the difference between the actual variable cost and the standard variable overhead  cost the actual actual hours used.</em>

<em>We would compare the actual cost to the standard cost of the actual hours used . This is done below as follows:</em>

                                                                                               $

4,200 hours should have cost (4200 × 3.75 )               15,750

but did cost                                                                       <u>15,500</u>

Rate variance                                                                 <u>      250</u>  Favorable

Note the actual hours of 4,200 cost $250 less than it should be have cost . Hence the variance is favorable

Rate variance = $250
