Question

Tannin Products Inc. prepared the following factory overhead cost budget for the Trim Department for July of the current year, during which it expected to use 12,000 hours for production:

Variable overhead cost:    
    Indirect factory labor $31,200  
    Power and light 9,120  
    Indirect materials 20,400  
      Total variable overhead cost   $ 60,720
Fixed overhead cost:    
    Supervisory salaries $45,600  
    Depreciation of plant and equipment 12,000  
    Insurance and property taxes 22,400  
      Total fixed overhead cost   80,000
Total factory overhead cost   $140,720

Tannin has available 16,000 hours of monthly productive capacity in the Trim Department under normal business conditions. During July, the Trim Department actually used 11,000 hours for production. The actual fixed costs were as budgeted. The actual variable overhead for July was as follows:

Actual variable factory overhead cost:  
Indirect factory labor $27,890
Power and light 8,210
Indirect materials 19,600
Total variable cost $55,700

Construct a factory overhead cost variance report for the Trim Department for July. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank. Round your interim computations to the nearest cent, if required.
