Chapter 7 Exercise 5

Overhead variances 

Nova Manufacturing applies factory overhead to products on the basis of direct labor hours. At the beginning of the current year, the company’s accountant made the following estimates for the forthcoming period: 

•        Estimated variable overhead: $500,000 

•        Estimated fixed overhead: $400,000 

•        Estimated direct labor hours: 40,000

 

It is now 12 months later. Actual total overhead incurred in the manufacture of 7,900 units amounted to $895,100. Actual labor hours totaled 39,800. Assuming a direct labor standard of five hours per finished unit, calculate the following: 

a.      Variable overhead efficiency variance 

b.      Fixed overhead volume variance 

c.      Overhead spending variance 

 

Chapter 7 Problem 1

1. P26-A1 Basic flexible budgeting (L.O. 2)

Centron, Inc., has the following budgeted production costs:

Direct materials  $0.40 per unit 

Direct labor 1.80 per unit 

Variable factory overhead  2.20 per unit 

Fixed factory overhead 

Supervision  $24,000 

Maintenance  18,000

Other  12,000

 

The company normally manufactures between 20,000 and 25,000 units each quarter. Should output exceed 25,000 units, maintenance and other fixed costs are expected to increase by $6,000 and $4,500, respectively.

During the recent quarter ended March 31, Centron produced 25,500 units and incurred the following costs:

 

Direct Materials $10,710 

Direct Labor 47,175

Variable factory overhead 51,940

Fixed factory overhead

     Supervision 24,500

     Maintenance 23,700

     Other 16,800

Total production costs $174,825 

 

Instructions:

a.      Prepare a flexible budget for 20,000, 22,500, and 25,000 units of activity. 

b.      Was Centron’s experience in the quarter cited better or worse than anticipated? Prepare an appropriate performance report and explain your answer. 

c.      Explain the benefit of using flexible budgets (as opposed to static budgets) in the measurement of performance.
