Transcribed Image Text:Problem 22-1B Responsibility accounting performance reports; controllable and budgeted costs P1
Britney Brown is the plant manager of GT Co.'s Chicago plant. The Refrigerator and Dishwasher operating departments manufacture
products and have their own managers. The Office department, which Brown also manages, provides services equally to the two operating
departments.
Each performance report includes only those costs that a particular operating department manager can control: direct materials, direct
labor, supplies used, and utilities. The plant manager is responsible for the department managers' salaries, building rent, office salaries
other than her own, and other office costs plus all costs controlled by the two operating department managers.
The April departmental budgets and actual costs for the two operating departments follow.
