Answer

The treatment of the production-volume variance varies among companies. It can be recognized as a period cost or included in the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), depending on the company's accounting policies and objectives. There is no one-size-fits-all rule, and management discretion plays a role in determining how this variance is handled.
