JoyT Company manufactures Maxi Dolls for sale in toy stores. In planning for this year, JoyT estimated variable factory overhead of $600,000 and fixed factory overhead of $400,000. JoyT uses a standard costing system, and factory overhead is allocated to units produced using standard direct labor hours. The level of activity budgeted for this year was 10,000 direct labor hours, and JoyT used 10,300 actual direct labor hours.

Based on the output accomplished during this year, 9,900 standard direct labor hours should have been used. Actual variable factory overhead was $596,000, and actual fixed factory overhead was $410,000 for the year. Based on this information, the variable factory overhead controllable variance for JoyT for this year was:

  1. a. $24,000 unfavorable.
  2. b. $2,000 unfavorable.
  3. c. $4,000 favorable.
  4. d. $22,000 favorable.

The Gidget Company produces a variety of styles of gidgets, and measures total output as the standard hours allowed for actual output. Gidget Company's manufacturing overhead budget calls for $50,000 of fixed overhead for the year plus $10 per direct labor hour. Last year the Gidget Company produced 11,000 standard hours of output. Actual manufacturing overhead for the year amounted to $53,000 of fixed overhead and the Gidget Company used 8,000 direct labor hours. The Gidget Company uses standard direct labor hours allowed as a basis for allocating overhead and uses 10,000 direct labor hours as its denominator volume. Calculate the production volume variance:
Fire King manufactures safes- mobile safes, and walk-in stationary bank safes. As part of its annual budgeting process, Custer is analyzing the profitability of its two products. Part of this analysis involves estimating the amount of overhead to be allocated to each product line. The following information relates to overhead. (a) The total estimated manufacturing overhead was $235,000. Under traditional costing (which assigns overhead on the basis of direct-labor hours), what amount of manufacturing overhead costs are assigned to One mobile safe? The total estimated manufacturing overhead of $235,000 was comprised of $150,000 for material-handling costs and $85,000 for purchasing activity costs. Under activity-based costing (ABC): (b) What amount of material handling costs are assigned to One mobile safe? (c) What amount of purchasing activity costs are assigned to One mobile safe?
Patel and Sons Inc. uses a standard cost system to apply factory overhead costs to units produced. Practical capacity for the plant is defined as 51,000 machine hours per year, which represents 25,500 units of output. Annual budgeted fixed factory overhead costs are $255,000 and the budgeted variable factory overhead cost rate is $2.30 per unit. Factory overhead costs are applied on the basis of standard machine hours allowed for units produced. Budgeted and actual output for the year was 18,800 units, which took 40,000 machine hours. Actual fixed factory overhead costs for the year amounted to $249,400 while the actual variable overhead cost per unit was $2.20. Based on the information provided above, prepare the appropriate journal entries to record: (a) actual factory overhead costs for the year, (b) the applied factory overhead costs for the year (both variable and fixed), and (c) the total flexible-budget variance and the production volume variance for the period. Assume that the…
