    The correct answer is $936 favorable.

    Explanation:

    According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

    we can calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance by using following formula:

    Variable OH efficiency variance = (Actual Hours - Standard Hours) * Standard Rate

    Where,

    Standard hours = 4,600 * 0.60 = 2,760

    By putting the data, we get

    Variable OH efficiency variance = (2,500 - 2,760) * $3.60

    = - $936 (negative sign shows favorable)

    = $936 Favorable
