Note: Exercise E23-19 should be completed before attempting Exercise E23-20. | |||||||
E23-20 Computing overhead variances | |||||||
Review the data from Great Fender given in Exercise E23-19. Consider the | |||||||
following additional information: | |||||||
Static budget variable overhead $ 5,500 | |||||||
Static budget fixed overhead $ 22,000 | |||||||
Static budget direct labor hours 550 hours | |||||||
Static budget number of units 22,000 units | |||||||
Great Fender allocates manufacturing overhead to production based on standard | |||||||
direct labor hours. Great Fender reported the following actual results for 2014: | |||||||
actual variable overhead, $4,950; actual fixed overhead, $23,000. | |||||||
Requirements | |||||||
1. Compute the overhead variances for the year: variable overhead cost variance, | |||||||
variable overhead efficiency variance, fixed overhead cost variance, and fixed | |||||||
overhead volume variance. |
E23-19 Calculating materials and labor variances | ||||||||
Great Fender, which uses a standard cost accounting system, manufactured 20,000 | ||||||||
boat fenders during 2014, using 144,000 square feet of extruded vinyl purchased at | ||||||||
$1.05 per square foot. Production required 420 direct labor hours that cost $13.50 | ||||||||
per hour. The direct materials standard was 7 square feet of vinyl per fender, at a | ||||||||
standard cost of $1.10 per square foot. The labor standard was 0.025 direct labor | ||||||||
hour per fender, at a standard cost of $12.50 per hour. | ||||||||
Compute the cost and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct labor. | ||||||||
Does the pattern of variances suggest Great Fender's managers have been making | ||||||||
trade-offs? Explain | ||||||||
