During 2022, Bramble Corp. produced 39,120 units and sold 39,120 for $16.00 per unit. Variable manufacturing costs were $6.00 per unit. Annual fixed manufacturing overhead was $78,240 ($2.00 per unit). Variable selling and administrative costs were $2.00 per unit sold, and fixed selling and administrative expenses were $19,560. Suppose the accountant for Bramble Corp. uses normal-absorption costing and uses the budgeted volume of 48,900 units to allocate the fixed overhead rather than the actual production volume of 39,120 units. The company expenses production volume variance to cost of goods sold in the accounting period in which it occurs.
