Question
Assume the following information appears in the standard cost card for a company that makes only one product:
Standard Quantity or Hours |
Standard Price or Rate |
Standard Cost | ||||||
Direct materials | 5 | pounds | $ | 11.00 | per pound | $ | 55.00 | |
Direct labor | 2 | hours | $ | 17.00 | per hour | $ | 34.00 | |
Variable manufacturing |
2 | hours | $ | 3.20 | per hour | $ | 6.40 | |
During the most recent period, the following additional information was available:
- 20,000 pounds of material was purchased at a cost of $10.50 per pound.
- All of the material that was purchased was used to produce 3,900 units.
- 8,000 direct labor-hours were recorded at a total cost of $132,000.
- The actual variable overhead cost incurred during the period was $25,000.
Assuming the company uses direct labor-hours to compute its predetermined overhead rate, what is the variable overhead efficiency variance?

- Please do not give solution in image format thankuarrow_forwardA company uses the following standard costs to produce a single unit of output. Direct materials 7 pounds at $0.90 per pound = $ 6.30 Direct labor 0.4 hour at $9.00 per hour = $ 3.60 Manufacturing overhead 0.4 hour at $4.20 per hour = $ 1.68 During the latest month, the company purchased and used 66,000 pounds of direct materials at a price of $1.30 per pound to produce 10,000 units of output. Direct labor costs for the month totaled $32,336 based on 3,760 direct labor hours worked. Variable manufacturing overhead costs incurred totaled $13,800 and fixed manufacturing overhead incurred was $20,000. Based on this information, the total direct materials variance for the month was:arrow_forwardBramble Corporation manufactures a single product. The standard cost per unit of product is shown below.

It was computed from a master manufacturing overhead budget based on normal production of 5,200 direct labor hours (5.200 units) for the month. The master budget showed total variable overhead costs of $36,400 ($7.00 per hour) and total fixed overhead costs of $36,400 ($7.00 per hour) Actual costs for October in producing 5.100 units were as follows. $198.746 Overhead volume variance Overhead controllable variance $ $12.00 12.00 $ 7.00 7.00 The…arrow_forward
