Which of the following would be included in the cost of a product manufactured according to variable costing?
a.direct materials
b.sales commissions
c.interest expense
d.office supply costs
Atlanta Systems produces two different products, Product A, which sells for $450 per unit, and Product B, which sells for $800 per
unit, using three different activities: Design, which uses Engineering Hours as an activity driver; Machining, which uses machine hours
as an activity driver; and Inspection, which uses number of batches as an activity driver. The cost of each activity and usage of the
activity drivers are as follows:
Usage by
Product A
Usage by
Product B

Atlanta manufactures 12,500 units of Product A and 10,200 units of Product B per month. Each unit of Product A uses $100 of direct
materials and $45 of direct labor, while each unit of Product B uşes $140 of direct materials and $75 of direct labor.
The formula to compute the direct labor rate variance is to calculate the difference between: (Choose one of the following)
Actual costs + (Actual hours × Standard rate).
Actual costs – Standard cost.
(Actual hours × Standard rate) – Standard costs.
Actual costs – (Actual hours × Standard rate).
