- (Appendix) Overhead variances—four variance Mobile Manufacturing Inc. manufactures a small electric motor that is a replacement part for the more popular gas furnaces. The standard cost card shows the product requirements as follows: Factory overhead rates are based on normal 100% capacity and the following flexible budgets: The company produced 3,500 units, using 18,375 direct labor hours and incurring the following overhead costs: Required: Calculate the factory overhead: variable-spending, variable-efficiency, fixed-spending, and production-volume variances. Does the net variance represent under- or overapplied factory overhead?arrow_forwardCalculating factory overhead: two variances Munoz Manufacturing Co. normally produces 10,000 units of product X each month. Each unit requires 2 hours of direct labor, and factory overhead is applied on a direct labor hour basis. Fixed costs and variable costs in factory overhead at the normal capacity are 2.50 and 1.50 per direct labor hour, respectively. Cost and production data for May follow: a. Calculate the flexible-budget variance. b. Calculate the production-volume variance. c. Was the total factory overhead under- or overapplied? By what amount?arrow_forwardVariance interpretation You have been asked to investigate some cost problems in the Assembly Department of Ruthenium Electronics Co., a consumer electronics company. To begin your investigation, you have obtained the following budget performance report for the department for the last quarter.

Excerpts from the interview follow: Q: What explains the poor performance in your department? A: Listen, youve got to understand what its been like in this department recently. Lately, it seems no matter how hard we try, we cant seem to make the standards. Im not sure what is going on, but weve been having a lot of problems lately. Q: What kind of problems? A: Well, for instance, all this Quarter weve been requisitioning purchased parts from the material storeroom, and the parts just didnt fit together very well. Im not sure what is going on, but during most of this quarter, weve had to scrap and sort purchased partsjust to get our assemblies put together. Naturally, all this takes time and material. And thats not all. Q: Go on. A: All this Quarter the work we've been receiving from the Fabrication Department has been shoddy. I mean, maybe around 20% of the stuff that comes in from Fabrication just cant be assembled. The fabrication is all wrong. As a result we've had to scrap and rework a lot of the stuff. Naturally, this has just shot our quantity variances. Interpret the variance reports in light of the comments by the Assembly Department supervisor.arrow_forward
