Question

Byrd Company produces one product, a putter called GO-Putter. Byrd uses a standard cost system and determines that it Should take one hour of direct labor to produce one GO-Putter. The normal production capacity for this putter is 120,000 units per year. The total budgeted overhead at normal capacity is $1,080,000 comprised of $420,000 of variable costs and $660,000 of fixed costs. Byrd applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. During the current year, Byrd produced 74,000 putters, worked 98,300 direct labor hours, and incurred variable overhead costs of $133,200 and fixed overhead costs of $612,000. Your answer is correct. Compute the predetermined variable overhead rate and the predetermined fixed overhead rate. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.75.) Variable Fixed Predetermined Overhead Rate 5.50 SHOW SOLUTION LINK TO TEXT [x] Your answer is incorrect. Try again. Compute the applied overhead for Byrd for the year. Overhead Applied

Explanation / Answer

2) Overhead applied = Standard hour allowed*predetermine overhead rate

= (74000*1) * 9

Overhead applied = 666000

3) Total overhead variance = applied overhead-actual overhead

= 666000-745200

Total overhead variance = 79200 Unfavorable
