Required information The Foundational 15 [LO10-1, LO10-2, LO10-3] The following information applies to the questions displayed below. Preble Company manufactures one product. Its variable manufacturing overhead is applied to production based on direct labor-hours and its standard cost card per unit is as follows: Direct materials: 5 pounds at ?10 per pound50 Direct labor: 4 hours at $16 per hour Variable overhead: 4 hours at $7 per hour Total standard cost per unit 64 $142 The planning budget for March was based on producing and selling 20,000 units.

All of this material was used in production. b. Direct laborers worked 57,000 hours at a rate of $17 per hour. c. Total variable manufacturing overhead for the month was $653,220.

Explanation / Answer

12) Variable manufacturing overhead cost planning budget = 20000*28 = 560000

13) Variable manufacturing overhead cost flexible budget = 24600*28 = 688800

14) Variable overhead rate variance = (7*57000-653220) = 254220 U

15) Variable overhead efficiency variance = (24600*4-57000)*7 = 289800 F
