Fixed Overhead are costs which do not alter based on production- even if you produced 0 units you would still have to pay it. Example would be Factory Space Rental/ Equipment Rental.
The Fixed Overhead can be allocated per unit for absorption by Direct Labour Hours/ Machine Hours/Units of Raw Material. (The indicator of absorbtion is usually the same as that for variable overheads).
thus Total Fixed Overheads/ Indicator units x # of Indicator Units used=
Fixed Overheads to be absorbed per unit

Manufacturing overhead - fixed or variable cost?

What arguments are there in favor of treating fixed manufacturing overhead costs as product costs? As period costs?
How fixed manufacturing overhead costs are shifted from one period to another under absorption costing?
Fixed manufacturing overhead costs are shifted from one period to another due to changes in inventories under absorption costing. Every unit that is produced is assigned some fixed manufacturing overhead costs. Assuming that the said unit is not sold during that period, the fixed manufacturing cost assigned to that unit will then become part of the inventory and reported on the balance sheet and not the cost of good sold.
Does absorption costing treat fixed manufacturing overhead as a period cost?
no its a product cost

WHAT IS Fixed moh?
Fixed MOH stands for fixed manufacturing overhead. It includes overhead costs that do not vary with production levels, such as rent on the manufacturing facility or management salaries. Fixed MOH is allocated to products based on predetermined rates or cost drivers.

When calculating total cost do you add in variable manufacturing overhead fixed manufacturing overhead or both?
Following is the formula for total costtotal cost = fixed overheads + variable overheads + direct labor + direct material
How do you calculate manufacturing overhead allocated?
To calculate manufacturing overhead allocated, first determine the total manufacturing overhead costs for the period, which can include indirect materials, indirect labor, and other overhead expenses. Next, select an appropriate allocation base, such as direct labor hours, machine hours, or units produced. Then, compute the overhead rate by dividing the total manufacturing overhead by the total units of the chosen allocation base. Finally, multiply the overhead rate by the actual amount of the allocation base used to determine the allocated manufacturing overhead.

What if budgeted manufacturing overhead is not equal to applied manufacturing overhead?
There is a variance.
What would a plantwide manufacturing overhead rate be assigned to?
what is plantwide manufacturing overhead
Is manufacturing overhead same as manufacturing cost?
No. Cost would include the cost of materials. Overhead would not.
What is fixed overhead denominator variance?
Fixed overhead denominator variance measures the difference between the budgeted fixed overhead costs and the actual fixed overhead costs allocated to production based on a predetermined overhead rate. It arises when the actual level of activity differs from the expected level used for budgeting purposes, leading to either under- or over-absorption of fixed overheads. This variance helps identify inefficiencies in cost management and capacity utilization within a manufacturing process. Understanding this variance is crucial for accurate financial planning and performance evaluation.
