To determine

Factory overhead volume variances:

Factory overhead volume variances refers to the difference between the budgeted fixed overheads at 100% of normal capacity, and the standard fixed overheads for the actual units produced. The factory overhead volume variances can be calculated as follows:

$\begin{array}{l}\text{Fixed factory overhead}\\ \text{volume variance}\end{array}\}\text{= }\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Standard hours for 100\% of}\\ \text{normal capacity}-\text{Standard}\\ \text{hours for actual units produced}\end{array}\right)\times \left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Fixed factory }\\ \text{overhead rate}\end{array}\right)$

To determine: The fixed factory overhead volume variance.
