Question

During the period Porter Inc. produced 1,000 units of product. The flexible budget for standard costs is: Direct materials $      43,000 Direct labor $      67,000 Variable overhead $      30,000 Fixed overhead $      25,000 variances for the period are: Direct materials price $            400 U Direct materials efficiency $            500 F Direct labor price $            600 F Direct labor efficiency $            200 U Variable overhead spending $            300 F Variable overhead efficiency $            100 F Fixed overheadd spending $            500 F Fixed overhead production volume $         1,000 U The direct materials inventory increased during the period by 1,000 (at standard cost) Required: (a) What is the actual cost of direct materials purchased during the period? (b) What is the actual cost of direct labor incurred? ( c) What was the variable overhead allocated? (d) What was the budgeted fixed overhead? ( e) What was the total under or overapplied overhead for the period? During the period Porter Inc. produced 1,000 units of product. The flexible budget for standard costs is: Direct materials $      43,000 Direct labor $      67,000 Variable overhead $      30,000 Fixed overhead $      25,000 variances for the period are: Direct materials price $            400 U Direct materials efficiency $            500 F Direct labor price $            600 F Direct labor efficiency $            200 U Variable overhead spending $            300 F Variable overhead efficiency $            100 F Fixed overheadd spending $            500 F Fixed overhead production volume $         1,000 U The direct materials inventory increased during the period by 1,000 (at standard cost) Required: (a) What is the actual cost of direct materials purchased during the period? (b) What is the actual cost of direct labor incurred? ( c) What was the variable overhead allocated? (d) What was the budgeted fixed overhead? ( e) What was the total under or overapplied overhead for the period?
