Costs and Production Data
Actual
Standard
Overhead is applied on the basis of standard machine hours. Three hours of machine time are required for each direct labor hour. The jobs were sold for $400,000. Selling and administrative expenses were $40,000. Assume that the amount of raw materials purchased equaled the amount used.
Compute the overhead controllable variance and the overhead volume variance. PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK! I am not just interested in the answer. I need to know how you got it.

Total Materials Variance:================= (AQ x AP) - (SQ xSP)=(10,600 x$2.25) - (10,000 x$2.00)=$3,850 U Materials Price Variance
================= (AQ x AP) - (AQ xSP)=(10,600 x$2.25) - (10,600 x$2.00)=$2,650 U Materials Quantity Variance
====================== (AQ x SP) - (SQ xSP)=(10,600 x$2.00) - (10,000 x$2.00)=$1,200 U Total Labor Variance =============== (AH x AR) - (SH xSR)=(14,400 x$8.50*) - (15,000 x$8.00**)=$2,400U *$122,400
