Variance Analysis
In layman's terms, variance analysis is an analysis of a difference between planned and actual behavior. Variance analysis is mainly used by the companies to maintain a control over a business. After analyzing differences, companies find the reasons for the variance so that the necessary steps should be taken to correct that variance.
Standard Costing
The standard cost system is the expected cost per unit product manufactured and it helps in estimating the deviations and controlling them as well as fixing the selling price of the product. For example, it helps to plan the cost for the coming year on the various expenses.

Question

Transcribed Image Text:A company's budgeted varlable manufacturing overhead cost Is $1.05 per machine-hour and Its budgeted fixed manufacturing
overhead Is $27,094 per month.
The following information is avallable for a recent month:
a. The denominator activity of 8,740 machine-hours is used to compute the predetermined overhead rate.
b. At a denominator activity of 8.740 machine-hours, the company should produce 3,800 unlts of product.
C. The company's actual operating results were:
Number of units produced
Actual machine-hours
Actual variable manufacturing overhead cost
Actual fixed manufacturing overhead cost
4,220
10,050
$12,060.00
$26,400.00
Required:
1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate and break It down Into varlable and fixed cost elements. (Round your answers to 2
declmal places.)
2. Compute the standard hours allowed for the actual production.
3. Compute the varlable overhead rate and efficlency varlances and the fixed overhead budget and volume varlances. (Indicate the
effect of each verlance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (I.e., zero varlance). Input all
amounts as positive values. Round your Intermedlate calculatlons and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
1. Predetermined overhead rate
per MH
Variable element
per MH
