Q. Variable manufacturing overhead spending variance ?
You have just been hired by FAB Corporation, the manufacturer of a revolutionary new garage door opening device. The president
asked you to review the company's costing system and "do what you can to help us get better control of our manufacturing overhead
costs." You find the company has never used a flexible budget, and you suggest preparing such a budget would be an excellent first
step in overhead planning and control.
After much effort and analysis, you estimated the following cost formulas and gathered the following actual cost data for March:
Utilities
Maintenance
Supplies
Indirect labor
Depreciation
Cost Formula
$16,000+ $0.19 per machine-hour
$38,500+ $1.30 per machine-hour
$0.90 per machine-hour
During March, the company worked 20,000 machine-hours and produced 14,000 units. The company originally planned to work
22,000 machine-hours during March.
Required:
1. Calculate the activity variances for March.
2. Calculate the spending variances for March.
$94,800+ $1.70 per…
For the month of April, compute the variances, indicating whether it is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)
