Zeta, Inc., produces handwoven rugs. Budgeted production is 5,000 rugs per month and the standard direct labor required to make each rug is 2 hours. All overhead is allocated based on direct labor hours. Zeta's manager is interested in what caused the recent month's $3,000 unfavorable overhead variance. The following information was available to aid in the analysis:

| Â Â Total variable overhead | Â | $ | 60,000 | Â | Â | Â | $ | 55,000 | Â |
| Â Â Total fixed overhead | Â | Â | 40,000 | Â | Â | Â | Â | 38,000 | Â |
