Insight Company's standard factory overhead rate is $3.76 per direct labor hour (DLH), calculated at 90% capacity standard DLHs. In December, the company operated at 80% of capacity, or 800 standard DLHs. Budgeted factory overhead at 80% of capacity is $3,260, of which $1.290 is fixed overhead. For December, the actual factory overhead cost was $3,990 for 800 actual DLHs, of which $1,410 was for fixed factory overhead. Under a four-way breakdown (decomposition) of the total overhead variance, what is the variable factory overhead spending variance for Insight Company for December? (Round your intermediate calculation to 2 decimal places.) O $652 unfavorable O $52 favorable O $227 favorable O $612 unfavorable O $427 unfavorable

Javon Company set standards of 2 hours of direct labor per unit at a rate of $15.10 per hour. During October, the company actually uses 11,000 hours of direct labor at a $168,300 total cost to produce 5,700 units. In November, the company uses 15,000 hours of direct labor at a $230,250 total cost to produce 6,100 units of product.AH = Actual HoursSH = Standard HoursAR = Actual RateSR = Standard Rate(1) Compute the direct labor rate variance, the direct labor efficiency variance, and the total direct labor variance for each of these two months.(2) Javon investigates variances of more than 5% of actual direct labor cost.

Over and Under, Inc. manufactures weaving looms. Before the period began, the company prepared the following manufacturing overhead budget for an expected activity level of 15,000 direct labor hours (DL hrs): Variable Manufacturing Overhead Costs $322,500 Fixed Manufacturing Overhead Costs $205,000 By the end of the period, the company noted that 3,000 fewer direct labor hours were logged than expected. The total actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred during the period was $545,000, of which, $325,000 was fixed. Which of the following statements is incorrect for the above data? A. The total volume variance can be calculated by multiplying the unit variable cost by the difference between the expected DL hrs and the actual DL hrs. B. The master budget variance related to fixed manufacturing overhead costs for the period equals $120,000. C. The volume variance for variable manufacturing overhead costs is favorable because fewer DL hrs were logged during production than expected. D.…
