Comprehensive Cost
NSF Lube is a fast-growing chain of oil-change stores. The following data are available for last year’s services:
- NSF Lube performed 475,200 oil changes last year. It had budgeted 432,000 oil changes, averaging 10 minutes each.
- Standard variable labor and support costs per oil change were as follows:
- Fixed
overhead costs:
- Fixed overhead is applied at the rate of $2.40 per oil change.
- Actual oil change costs:
Required
- a. Prepare a cost variance analysis for each variable cost for last year.
- b. Prepare a fixed overhead cost variance analysis like the one in Exhibit 16.13.

standard cost sheet for one of its products:
Fixed Overhead rate is based on practical
capacity of 250,000 units. For the year
2022, the company has produced 160,000
units, with the following actual data: Direct
Material purchased 33,000 grams at total
cost $198, 000 Ending inventory of direct
materials was 2, 000 grams Direct labor
used was 4, 400 hours for $79,200 Variable

- Bolger and Co. manufactures large gaskets for the turbine industry. Bolgers per-unit sales price and variable costs for the current year are as follows: Bolgers total fixed costs aggregate to 360,000. Bolgers labor agreement is expiring at the end of the year, and management is concerned about the effects of a new labor agreement on its break-even point in units. The controller performed a sensitivity analysis to ascertain the estimated effect of a 10-per-unit direct labor increase and a 10,000 reduction in fixed costs. Based on these data, the break-even point would: a. decrease by 1,000 units. b. decrease by 125 units. c. increase by 375 units. d. increase by 500 units.arrow_forwardAt the beginning of the year, Lopez Company had the following standard cost sheet for one of its chemical products: Lopez computes its overhead rates using practical volume, which is 80,000 units. The actual results for the year are as follows: (a) Units produced: 79,600; (b) Direct labor: 158,900 hours at 18.10; (c) FOH: 831,000; and (d) VOH: 112,400. Required: 1.

The standard wage rate is 13.50 per hour. 10-26 Labor Rate and Efficiency Variances Refer to the information above for Tico Inc. on the previous page Required: Calculate the labor rate and efficiency variances using the columnar and formula approaches.arrow_forward
- Solving for Unknowns Misterio Company uses a standard costing system. During the past quarter, the following variances were computed: Variable overhead efficiency variance $ 45,360 U Direct labor efficiency variance 226,800 U Direct labor rate variance 21,870 U Misterio applies variable overhead using a standard rate of $2 per direct labor hour allowed. Three direct labor hours are allowed per unit produced. (Only one type of product is manufactured.) During the quarter, Misterio used 35 percent more direct labor hours than should have been used. : What were the actual direct labor hours worked? What are the total hours allowed? What is the standard hourly rate for direct labor? What is the actual hourly rate? Round your answer to the nearest cent. 3.
