Answer:

a. Cash basis $15,000

b. Accrual basis $2,500

Explanation:

Under the cash basis of accounting, expenses are recorded or recognized in the books not necessarily when incurred but when cash is paid. This is not in line with the matching concept which requires that expenses be recognized the  period it is incurred as well as the resulting revenue.

Hence, the $15,000 paid on January 1  would have been recognized as an expense for the two months ending February 28 using the cash basis.

Using the accrual basis, monthly expense

= $15,000/12

= $1,250

Hence advertising expense for 2 months

= 2 * $1,250

= $2,500

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = $9,096 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Actual variable overhead rate = \frac{Actual variable overhead}{Actual Hours} = \frac{66,170}{6,400}  = 10.34

Therefore variance with the budgeted standard variable overhead

= (Standard Overhead rate - Actual overhead rate) \times Actual Hours

= ($9.70 - $10.34) \times 6,400 = -$4,096

And Fixed Overhead variance = Standard Fixed Overhead - Actual Fixed Overhead = $69,000 - $74,000 = -$5,000

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = -$4,096 + -$5,000 = -$9,096

Since the value of variance is negative it means the expense both variable and fixed are over absorbed, which means it is unfavorable.

Total of the variable overhead rate and fixed manufacturing overhead budget variances for the month = $9,096 Unfavorable
