- Factory overhead volume variance Bellingham Company produced 15,000 units of product that required 4 standard direct labor hours per unit. The standard fixed overhead cost per unit is 1.15 per direct labor hour at 58,000 hours, which is 100% of normal capacity. Determine the fixed factory overhead volume variance.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_forwardCalculating factory overhead: two variances Monrovia Manufacturing Inc. normally produces 10,000 units of product A each month.

- Standard cost summary; materials and labor cost variances Perkins Processors Inc. produces an average of 10,000 units each month. The factory standards are 20,000 hours of direct labor and 10,000 pounds of materials for this volume. The standard cost of direct labor is 9.00 per hour, and the standard cost of materials is 4.00 per pound. The standard factory overhead at this level of production is 20,000. During the current month the production and cost reports reflected the following information: On the basis of this information: 1. Prepare a standard cost summary. 2. Calculate the materials (use the materials purchase price variance) and labor cost variances, and indicate whether they are favorable or unfavorable, using the formulas on pages 421422 and 424.arrow_forwardDirect materials and direct labor variance analysis Lenni Clothing Co. manufactures clothing in a small manufacturing facility. Manufacturing has 25 employees. Each employee presently provides 40 hours of productive labor per week. Information about a production week is as follows: Instructions Determine (A) the standard cost per unit for direct materials and direct labor; (B) the price variance, quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance; and (C) the rate variance, time variance, and total direct labor cost variance.arrow_forwardDirect materials variances Bellingham Company produces a product that requires 2.5 standard pounds per unit. The standard price is 3.75 per pound.

- Calculation of materials and labor variances Fritz Corp. manufactures and sells a single product. The company uses a standard cost system. The standard cost per unit of product follows: The charges to the manufacturing department for November, when 5,000 units were produced, follow: The Purchasing department normally buys about the same quantity as is used in production during a month. In November, 5,500 lb were purchased at a price of $2.90 per pound. Required: Calculate the following from standard costs for the data given, using the formulas on pages 421–422 and 424: Materials quantity variance. Materials purchase price variance (at time of purchase). Labor efficiency variance. Labor rate variance. Give some reasons as to why both the materials quantity variance and labor efficiency variance might be unfavorable.arrow_forwardABC Inc. spent a total of $48,000 on factory overhead. Of this, $28,000 was fixed overhead. ABC Inc. had budgeted $27,000 for fixed overhead. Actual machine hours were 5.000. Standard hours for units made were 4,800. The standard variable overhead rate was $4.10. What is the variable overhead rate variance?arrow_forwardFactory overhead cost variance report Feeling Better Medical Inc., a manufacturer of disposable medical supplies, prepared the following factory overhead cost budget for the Assembly Department for October of the current year. The company expected to operate the department at 100% of normal capacity of 30,000 hours. During October, the department operated at 28,500 hours, and the factory overhead costs incurred were indirect factory wages, 234,000; power and light, 178,500; indirect materials, 50,600; supervisory salaries, 126,000; depreciation of plant and equipment, 70,000; and insurance and property taxes, 44,000.

- Materials and labor variances Fausto Fabricators Inc. uses a standard cost system to account for its single product. The standards established for the product include the following: The following operating data came from the records for the month: In process, beginning inventory, none. In process, ending inventory, 800 units, 80% complete as to labor; material is issued at the beginning of processing. Completed during the month, 5,600 units. Materials issued to production were 51,680 lb @ .55 per pound. Direct labor was 384,000 for 40,000 hours worked. Required: Calculate the following variances, using the diagram format in Figure 8-4. 1. Materials price. 2. Materials quantity. 3. Net materials variance. 4. Labor rate. 5. Labor efficiency. 6. Net labor variance. (Hint: Before determining the standard quantity for materials and labor, you must first compute the equivalent units of production for materials and labor.)arrow_forwardFactory overhead cost variance report Tannin Products Inc. prepared the following factory overhead cost budget for the Trim Department for July of the current year, during which it expected to use 20,000 hours for production: Tannin has available 25,000 hours of monthly productive capacity in the Trim Department under normal business conditions. During July, the Trim Department actually used 22,000 hours for production. The actual fixed costs were as budgeted. The actual variable overhead for July was as follows: Construct a factory overhead cost variance report for the Trim Department for July.arrow_forwardDirect materials, direct labor, and factory overhead cost variance analysis Mackinaw Inc. processes a base chemical into plastic.
