Answer to Problem 11B.1E
The overall spending variance of $19000 shows that the costs incurred in excess of the budget $0.25 per ton variable cost and budget $300,000 in fixed cost $19000 uncharged cost is the responsibility of the transport service department.
Explanation of Solution
Total variable costs charges by both the plants are $45,000 ($32,500 + $12,500) and fixed cost to both the plants are $300,000 ($210,000 + $90,000).
Total charges to both the plants are $345,000
The total actual cost incurred is $364,000
The remaining cost $19000 (
The overall spending variance of $19000 shows that the costs incurred in excess of the budget $0.25 per ton variable cost and budget $300,000 in fixed cost $19000 uncharged cost is the responsibility of the transport service department.
