Fixed MFG overhead budget variance= Budgeted Fixed MFG overhead - Actual fixed Mfg OH $260,000= 20,000 favorable. Then Budgeted fixed MFG OH = 260,000+20,000= $280,000.
Budgeted Fixed Mfg OH absorption rate= 280,000/ 600,000 Machine hrs=$.46666/M hrs
To solve for standard machine hrs allowed for actual output= $15,000/.46666+600,000= 632,143 Machine hours
