Answer:

Variable overhead rate variance = $2,870 favorable

Explanation:

Variable overhead rate variance is the difference between the standard cost allowed for variable production overhead and the actual variable cost incurred.

This computed as follows:

                                                                                    $

17,130 hours should have cost ( 17,130 ×7.20)      123336

but did cost                                                            <u>120,466</u>

Variable overhead rate variance                           <u>  2870 </u> Favorable

Variable overhead rate variance = $2,870

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

$607,250 outflow

Explanation:

Net Working Capital is the amount of money needed to maintain operations on a day to day basis.

Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

where,

<u>Current Assets are calculated as :</u>

Inventory                                                        $216,000

Accounts Receivable ($525,000 x 1.09)   $575,250

Total                                                                $788,250

and

Current Liabilities = $181,000

therefore,

Net Working Capital = $788,250 - $181,000 = $607,250

Conclusion

The project's initial cash flow for net working capital is $607,250 outflow.

Selling price per unit = $160

Sales volume = 27,000 units

Sales revenue = $4,320,000 ($160 * 27,000)

Variable production cost = $106 per unit

Total variable production costs = $2,862,000 ($106 * 27,000)

Total fixed costs:

Production costs = $200,000

Selling and admin = 325,000

Total fixed costs = $525,000

Break-even point = Fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit

= $525,000/$40 = 13,125
