Question

Check my WoPk view prévious attempt 6 Exercise 10A-2 Predetermined Overhead Rate; Overhead Variances [LO10-3, LO10-4] Norwall Company's budgeted variable manufacturing overhead cost is $1.35 per machine-hour and its budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $101,568 per month. points The following information is available for a recent month: Hint Print a. The denominator activity of 29,440 machine-hours is used to compute the predetermined overhead rate b. At a denominator activity of 29,440 machine-hours, the company should produce 12,800 units of product. C. The company's actual operating results were: References 13,490 30,190 $ 36,228 $102,200 Number of units produced Actual machine-hours Actual variable manufacturing overhead cost Actual fixed manufacturing overhead cost Required 1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate and break it down into variable and fixed cost elements. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) 2. Compute the standard hours allowed for the actual production. 3. Compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances and the fixed overhead budget and volume variances. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)

Explanation / Answer

1)PRE-DETERMINED OVERHEAD RATE="OVERHEAD FROM THE FLEXIBLE BUDGE OF DENOMINATOR LEVEL OF ACTIVITY / DENOMINATOR LEVEL OF ACTIVITY OF TOTAL OVERHEAD INCURRED FOR 29,440 MACHINE HOURS"

FIXED COSTS=$101,568 + VARIABLE COSTS=$39,744($1.35 PER MACHINE HOUR *29,440)=$141,312

PREDETRMINED OVERHEAD RATE=$141,312/29,440=$4.8 PER MACHINE HOUR

MACHINE HOUR VARIABLE RATE(AS GIVEN IN QUESTION)=$1.35 PER MACHINE HOUR

FIXED RATE=$101,568/29,440=$3.45 PER MACHINE HOUR

2)STANDARD HOURS PER UNIT=29,440 HRS/12,800 UNITS = 2.3 HOURS PER UNIT

STANDARD HOURS FOR ACTUAL PRODUCTION=2.3 HOURS PER UNIT * 13,490 UNITS=31,027 HOURS

3)a)ACTUAL VARIABLE OVERHEAD INCURRED=$36,228

FLEXIBLE BUDGET FOR VARIABLE OVERHEAD AT ACUTAL HOURS=30,190 HOURS * $1.35 =$40,756.50

VARIABLE OVERHEAD RATE VARIANCE=$36,228-$40,756.50=$4,528.50(F)

FLEXIBLE BUDGET FOR VARIABLE OVERHEAD AT STANDARD HOURS=31,027 HOURS * $1.35=$41,886.45

VARIABLE OVERHEAD EFFICIENCY VARIANCE=$40,756.50-$41,886.45=1,129.95(F)

b)Actual Fixed Overhead Incurred=$102,200

Fixed overhead Budget=29,440 hours * $ 3.45=$101,568

Fixed Overhead Applied=31,027 hours * $3.45=107,043.15

Budget variance=$102,200-$101,568=$632 (U)

Volume Variance=$101,568-$107,043.15=$5,475.15(F)
