    8,450 Favorable; 3,206 Unfavorable

    Explanation:

    Variable overhead spending variance:

    = (Standard rate - Actual rate) * Actual hours

    = ($3 * 18,731) - $47,743

    = 8,450 Favorable

    Variable overhead efficiency variance:

    = (Standard hour - Actual hour) * Standard rate

    = [ (11,620 * 1.52) - 18,731] * $3

    = (-1,068.6) * $3

    = 3,206 Unfavorable
