Erie Company manufactures an MP3 player called the Jogging Mate. The company uses standards to control its costs. The labour and variable overhead standards that have been set for one Jogging Mate MP3 player are as follows: Direct labour Variable overhead Standard Hours 18 minutes 18 minutes Standard Rate per Hour $18.00 $5.00 Standard Cost $5.40 $ 1.50 Budgeted fixed overhead was estimated to be $30,000 per month. Fixed overhead cost is applied using direct labour-hours. During August, 5,450 hours of direct labour time was recorded in the manufacture of 19,000 units of
Process Costing
Process costing is a sort of operation costing which is employed to determine the value of a product at each process or stage of producing process, applicable where goods produced from a series of continuous operations or procedure.
Job Costing
Job costing is adhesive costs of each and every job involved in the production processes. It is an accounting measure. It is a method which determines the cost of specific jobs, which are performed according to the consumer’s specifications. Job costing is possible only in businesses where the production is done as per the customer’s requirement. For example, some customers order to manufacture furniture as per their needs.
ABC Costing
Cost Accounting is a form of managerial accounting that helps the company in assessing the total variable cost so as to compute the cost of production. Cost accounting is generally used by the management so as to ensure better decision-making. In comparison to financial accounting, cost accounting has to follow a set standard ad can be used flexibly by the management as per their needs. The types of Cost Accounting include – Lean Accounting, Standard Costing, Marginal Costing and Activity Based Costing.

![Erie Company manufactures an MP3 player called the Jogging Mate. The company uses standards to control its
costs. The labour and variable overhead standards that have been set for one Jogging Mate MP3 player are as
follows:
Direct labour

$ 5.00
Budgeted fixed overhead was estimated to be $30,000 per month. Fixed overhead cost is applied using direct
labour-hours. During August, 5,450 hours of direct labour time was recorded in the manufacture of 19,000 units of
the Jogging Mate. The direct labour cost totalled $109,100 for the month. Actual variable overhead and fixed
overhead costs were $20,710 and $30,400, respectively.
Standard Cost

$ 1.50
Required:
1-a. What direct labour cost should have been incurred in the manufacture of the 19.000 units of the Jogging Mate?
(Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Variance
1-b. Calculate the total direct labor cost variance? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of
each variance by selecting "F" for favourable, "U" for unfavourable, and "None" for no effect (i.e.. zero
variance).)](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F8342b035-9205-4b5f-836c-08881ca83705%2F2e4af42d-f867-4f7f-83bc-2234e91e9640%2F97d6oal_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)

4. Suppose the static budget volume is 18.000 players-this is the denominator volume. Compute the volume
variance for fixed overhead cost. (Round intermediate calculations to the nearest whole dollar amount. Indicate
the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favourable, "U" for unfavourable, and "None" for no effect (i.e.,
zero variance).)

5. Suppose that the static budget volume is also the normal volume and that the budgeted variable overhead cost
in the static budget is $30,000. Given the standard cost card data in the question, calculate the under-or
overapplied fixed overhead for August. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
