Question

If theoretical capacity is 12000 direct labour hours And average practical capacity is 80% = 9600 direct labour hours.
And budgeted labour hours = 9490 Actual direct labour hours used = 9974
Predetermined overhead rate $113.74679
Budgeted overhead cost is $1079457 Variable $192957 Fixed $886500
Actual over head cost is $1092650 Variable $193150 Fixed $899500
What’s the highlights of idle capcity costs ?
