The following information relates to Morgan, Inc.’s overhead costs for the month:
Static budget variable overhead | \(7,800 |
Static budget fixed overhead | \)3,900 |
Static budget direct labor hours | 1,300 hours |
Static budget number of units | 5,200 units |
Morgan allocates manufacturing overhead to production based on standard direct labor hours. Compute the standard variable overhead allocation rate and the standard fixed overhead allocation rate.
Matthews Fender, which uses a standard cost system, manufactured 20,000 boat fenders during 2018, using 143,000 square feet of extruded vinyl purchased at \(1.30 per square foot. Production required 400 direct labor hours that cost \)16.00 per hour. The direct materials standard was seven square feet of vinyl per fender, at a standard cost of \(1.35 per square foot. The labor standard was 0.028 direct labor hour per fender, at a standard cost of \)15.00 per hour.
Compute the cost and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct labor. Does the pattern of variances suggest Matthews Fender’s managers have been making tradeoffs? Explain.
Question:List the fixed overhead variances, and briefly describe each.
Question:Top managers of Marshall Industries predicted 2018 sales of 14,800 units of its product at a unit price of \(9.50. Actual sales for the year were 14,600 units at \)12.00 each. Variable costs were budgeted at \(2.00 per unit, and actual variable costs were \)2.10 per unit. Actual fixed costs of \(48,000 exceeded budgeted fixed costs by \)4,000.
Prepare Marshall’s flexible budget performance report. What variance contributed most to the year’s favorable results? What caused this variance?
Question:List the direct materials variances, and briefly describe each.
