Direct materials                                                2 lbs                 $ 8.50 per lb.

Direct labor                                                       1.5 hrs              $11.00 per hour

Variable support rate                                                                 $28.50 per direct labor hour

Actual production for September used the following resources:

Units manufactured                                           3,000

Direct materials used in production                    6,125 lbs          $ 51,756.25

Direct labor                                                       4,435 hrs          $ 49,893.75

Actual variable support                                                              $128,526.30
