Gigil Company has asked you to reconstruct their record after a fire. You were given the following variances: Favorable Spending variance, P400,000; Unfavorable Variable efficiency variance, P200,000; Favorable Volume variance, P40,000. Total fixed overhead is P200,000 at normal capacity. The company's standard variable overhead is P40 per direct labor hour. In the given period, the company incurred a total overhead cost of P2,400,000. Compute for the standard factory overhead rate.

Thorne Company has the following information available for the past year. They use machine hours to allocate overhead. NOTE: All dollar amounts are rounded to whole dollars and shown with "$" and commas as needed (i.e. $12,345). For the variance conditions, your answer is either "F” (for Favorable) or "U” (for Unfavorable) - capital letter and no quotes. What is the variable overhead efficiency variance? Is it favorable or unfavorable?
For a simple regression analysis model that is used to allocate factory overhead, an internal auditor finds that the intersection of the line of best fit for the overhead allocation with the y-axis is $14,000. The slope of the line is 0.2. The independent variable, factory wages, amounts to $810,000 for the month. What is the estimated amount of factory overhead to be allocated for the month? Multiple Choice $289,400. $162.000. $68,000. $88,000.
The following computations are incomplete. The missing items are labeled (a) through (d). identify each missing item by name (a through c) and show the missing value (a through d). Labor rate variance = 4,800 hours x [(a) – $8.50] = $350 favorable Labor efficiency variance = (b) x [(c) – 5,000 hours] = $(d) Also, if the manager of the company left without arranging for a replacement, which variances would have been most affected?
Beverly Company has determined a standard variable overhead rate of $4.00 per direct labor hour and expects to incur 0.50 labor hour per unit produced. Last month, Beverly incurred 1,700 actual direct labor hours in the production of 3,500 units. The company has also determined that its actual variable overhead rate is $2.40 per direct labor hour. Calculate the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances as well as the total amount of over- or underapplied variable overhead. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Variable Overhead Rate Variance $2,720 F Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance $200 F Over or under applied Variable Overhead??- how do I figure this out??
Beverly Company has determined a standard variable overhead rate of $3.90 per direct labor hour and expects to incur 0.50 labor hours per unit produced. Last month, Beverly incurred 1,650 actual direct labor hours in the production of 3,400 units. The company has also determined that its actual variable overhead rate is $2.40 per direct labor hour. Required: Calculate the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances as well as the total amount of over- or underapplied variable overhead. Note: Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).

Beverly Company has determined a standard variable overhead rate of $3.40 per direct labor hour and expects to incur 0.50 labor hour per unit produced. Last month, Beverly incurred 1,400 actual direct labor hours in the production of 2,900 units. The company has also determined that its actual variable overhead rate is $2.40 per direct labor hour. Calculate the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances as well as the total amount of over- or underapplied variable overhead. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). variable overhead rate variance variable overhead efficiency variance over-or underapplied variable overhead

Maney Televisions utilizes a traditional overhead allocation method, and has determined that overhead costs are driven by direct labor hours. Relevant cost information is provided below. Total estimated overhead costs $650,000 Total estimated DL hours 130,000 Actual overhead costs $640,300 Actual DL hours 127,500 The unadjusted cost of goods sold balance at the end of the year is $56,000. What is the overhead variance? Please provide your answer as a positive number rounded to the nearest whole dollar.

Last year, a department's standard costing system reported an unfavorablevariable overhead spending variance and an unfavorable volume variance. Thedenominator activity level selected for allocating overhead to the product wasbased on 80% of capacity. If 100% of capacity had been selected instead as thedenominator level, how would the reported unfavorable spending and volumevariances be affected respectively? A. increase, inchangedB. increased , increasedC. unchanged, increasedD. unchanged, unchanged
Alvarez Company’s output for the current period yields a $20,000 favorable overhead volume variance and a $60,400 unfavorable overhead controllable variance. Standard overhead applied to production for the period is $225,000. What is the actual total overhead cost incurred for the period?
