| Direct Materials | 2 parts | $ 0.15 per part |
| Direct Labor | 0.02 hours | 8.00 per hour |
| Variable Manufacturing |
0.02 hours | 10.00 per hour |
Fixed Manufacturing Overhead ($28,500 for static budget volume of 95,000 units and 1,900 hours, or $15 per hour)__________________________________________________________________
Actual Cost Information
| Direct Materials | (209,000 parts @ $0.20 per part) | $41,800 |
| Direct Labor | (1.600 hours @ $8.15 per hour) | 13,040 |
| Variable Manufacturing Overhead | 9,000 | |
| Fixed Manufacturing Overhead | 26,000 |
Requirements
1. Compute the cost and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct labor.
2. For manufacturing overhead, compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances and the fixed overhead cost and volume variances.
3. Hear Smart’s management used better quality materials during September. Discuss the trade-off between the two direct material variances.
