Answer:

Total manufacturing cost variance = $5,600 unfavorable

Explanation:

The total manufacturing cost variance is the difference between the actual total manufacturing cost incurred and the standard manufacturing cost for the actual output achieved.

The manufacturing cost is the sum of the direct material cost and direct labour cost and factory production overhead.

Actual total Manufacturing cost = 202,100

Standard manufacturing cost=$196,500

Variance = $202,100- $196,500=$5,600 unfavorable

Total manufacturing cost variance = $5,600 unfavorable
