Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
AH × AR = $70,000
Total variable overhead spending variance = (AH × AR)- (SH × SR)
$4,550 F = $70,000 - (3,550 setups × SR)
-$4,550 = $70,000 - (3,550 setups × SR)
3,550 setups × SR = $70,000 + $4,550
3,550 setups × SR = $74,550
SR = $74,550 ÷ 3,550 setups
SR = $21 per setup
