Answer:
$9000 (unfavorable).
Explanation:
Given: Budgeted fixed overhead= $360000.
Actual fixed overhead=$ 360000.
Actual production= 11,700 units.
The variable overhead rate was $3 per hour.
The standard hours for production were 5 hours per unit.
The fixed factory overhead volume variance is difference between actual production volume and budgeted production. It help in measuring the effecient use of fixed resources. It is termed as favourable if actual fixed overhead exceed the budgeted amount, however, it is unfavorable if the actual fixed overhead is less than budgeted amount.
Now, lets calculate the Actual fixed overhead cost.
Actual fixed overhead cost=
∴ Actual fixed overhead cost=
Actual fixed overhead cost= $351000.
Next calculating the fixed factory overhead volume variance.
The fixed factory overhead volume variance=
We know, Budgeted fixed overhead= $360000 and Actual fixed overhead cost= $351000
∴ The fixed factory overhead volume variance=
The fixed factory overhead volume variance= $9000 (unfavorable)
Answer:
(a)
For Job G15:
Direct labor = $20,000
Overhead applied = 16,000
Overhead rate =
= 0.8 × 100
= 80%
Overhead applied = Direct labor × 80%
= $20,000 × 80%
= $16,000
Overhead is applied on direct labor. Hence, rate is 80%.
Overhead for Job B10 = Direct labor × 80%
= $54,000 × 80%
= $43,200
Therefore,
Total overhead applied = $43,200 + 45,750 + 16,000
= $104,950
(b) Hence,
Overapplied overhead for February:
= Total overhead applied - Actual Overhead
= $104,950 - $68,500
= $36,450
