Answer: $67,500 U

Explanation: (Variable overhead efficiency variance = (10,125 - 9,000) * $60 = $67,500 U) (Variable overhead efficiency variance = (Actual quantity of variable overhead cost-allocation base used for actual output - Budgeted quantity of variable overhead cost-allocation base allowed for actual output) * Budgeted variable overhead cost per unit of cost-allocation base)
