Calculating materials and labor variances Learning Objective 3

DLEff. Var. $2,400 F

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 $I.35 per square foot. The labor standard was 0.028 direct labor hour per fender, at a standard cost of $I 5.00 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 trade-offs? Explain.

E19-15 Computing and using single plantwide overhead allocation rate Learning Objective 1 Basic $322,000 Koehler makes handheld calculators in two models: basic and professional. Koehler estimated $721,000 of manufacturing overhead and 515,000 machine hours for the year. The basic model actually consumed 230,000 machine hours, and the professional model consumed 285,000 machine hours. Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rate using machine hours (MHr) as the allocation base. How much overhead is allocated to the basic model? To the professional model?
