Use the following information for the Exercises below.

[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Sedona Company set the following standard costs for one unit of its product for this year.

Direct material (20 Ibs. @ $2.50 per Ib.)		$	50.00
Direct labor (10 hrs. @ $22.00 per hr.)			220.00
Variable overhead (10 hrs. @ $4.00 per hr.)			40.00
Fixed overhead (10 hrs. @ $1.60 per hr.)			16.00
Total standard cost		$	326.00

The $5.60 ($4.00 + $1.60) total overhead rate per direct labor hour is based on an expected operating level equal to 75% of the factory's capacity of 50,000 units per month. The following monthly flexible budget information is also available.

		Operating Levels (% of capacity)
Flexible Budget			70%				75%				80%
Budgeted output (units)			35,000				37,500				40,000
Budgeted labor (standard hours)			350,000				375,000				400,000
Budgeted overhead (dollars)
Variable overhead		$	1,400,000			$	1,500,000			$	1,600,000
Fixed overhead			600,000				600,000				600,000
Total overhead		$	2,000,000			$	2,100,000			$	2,200,000

During the current month, the company operated at 70% of capacity, employees worked 340,000 hours, and the following actual overhead costs were incurred.

Variable overhead costs		$	1,375,000
Fixed overhead costs			628,600
Total overhead costs		$	2,003,600

Exercise 08-17 Computing total variable and fixed overhead variances LO P4

(1) Compute the predetermined overhead application rate per hour for total overhead, variable overhead, and fixed overhead. Predetermined OH Rate Variable overhead costs Fixed overhead costs Total overhead costs (2) Compute the total variable and total fixed overhead variances and classify each as favorable or unfavorable. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting for favorable, unfavorable, and no variance. Round "Rate per hour" answers to 2 decimal places.) ----At 70% of Operating Capacity-- Standard DL Overhead Costs Actual Results Variance Fav./Unf. Hours Applied Variable overhead costs Fixed overhead costs Total overhead costs
