Calculating materials and labor variances Learning Objective 3

DLEff. Var. $2,400 F

Matthews Fender, which uses a standard cost system, manufactured 20,000 boat fenders during 2018, using 143,000 square feet of extruded vinyl purchased at $1.30 per square foot. Production required 400 direct labor hours that cost $16.00 per hour. The direct materials standard was seven square feet of vinyl per fender, at a standard cost of $I.35 per square foot. The labor standard was 0.028 direct labor hour per fender, at a standard cost of $I 5.00 per hour.
Compute the cost and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct labor. Does the pattern of variances suggest Matthews Fender's managers have been making trade-offs? Explain.

Your company has received an order for 20 units of aproduct. Th e labor cost to produce the item is $9.50 per hour. Th esetup cost for the item is $60 and material costs are $25 per unit. Th e item is sold for $92. Th e learning rate is 80 percent. Overheadis assessed at a rate of 55 percent of unit labor cost.(a) Determine the average unit cost for the 20 units if the fi rstunit takes four hours.(b) Determine the minimum number of units that need to bemade before the selling price meets or exceeds the averageunit cost.
Compute departmental overhead rates (Learning Objective 1)54-4Snyder Snacks makes potato chips, corn chips, and cheese puffs using three different pro- duction lines within the same manufacturing plant . Currently, Snyder uses a single plant- wide overhead rate to allocate its $3,311,500 of annual manufacturing overhead . Of this amount, $2,070,000 is associated with the potato chip line, $763,000 is associated with the corn chip line, and $478,500 is associated with the cheese puff line. Snyder's plant is currently running a total of 17,900 machine hours: 11,500 in the potato chip line, 3,500 in the corn chip line, and 2,900 in the cheese puff line. Snyder considers machine hours to be the cost driver of manufacturing overhead costs .1. What is Snyder's plantwide overhead rate?2. Calculate the departmental overhead rates for Snyder's three production lines. Roundall answers to the nearest cent .3. Which products have been overcosted by the plantwide rate?
