Question

Antuan Company set the following standard costs for one unit of its product.


The predetermined overhead rate ($18.50 per direct labor hour) is based on an expected volume of 75% of the factory’s capacity of 20,000 units per month. Following are the company’s budgeted overhead costs per month at the 75% capacity level.

15,000


The company incurred the following actual costs when it operated at 75% of capacity in October.

Required:
1&2. Prepare flexible overhead budgets for October showing the amounts of each variable and fixed cost at the 65%, 75%, and 85% capacity levels and classify all items listed in the fixed budget as variable or fixed.
3. Compute the direct materials cost variance, including its price and quantity variances.

AQ = Actual Quantity
SQ = Standard Quantity
AP = Actual Price
SP = Standard Price
4. Compute the direct labor cost variance, including its rate and efficiency variances.

AH = Actual Hours
SH = Standard Hours
AR = Actual Rate
SR = Standard Rate
5. Prepare a detailed overhead variance report that shows the variances for individual items of overhead.

Direct materials (3.0 Ibs. @ $5.00 per Ib.) $ 15.00 Direct labor (1.6 hrs. @ $12.00 per hr.) 19.20 Overhead (1.6 hrs. @ $18.50 per hr.) 29.60 Total standard cost $ 63.80
