Question
The (partial) cost sheet for the single product manufactured at Vienna Company follows.
Direct labor | (23 hours @ $25) | $ | 575 | |
Variable |
(23 hours @ $2) | 46 | ||
Fixed overhead | (23 hours @ $4) | 92 | ||
The
Actual variable overhead incurred | $ | 144,000 | |
Actual fixed overhead incurred | 392,400 | ||
Direct labor efficiency variance | 174,000 | U | |
Variable overhead price variance | 42,000 | F | |
Required:
a. What was the variable overhead efficiency variance?
b. What was the fixed overhead price variance?
c. What was the fixed overhead production volume variance?
(For all requirements, indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, or "U" for unfavorable. If there is no effect, do not select either option.)
