When one of Houghton's clients receives an order from an online customer, the order is forwarded to Houghton. Houghton then pulls the item from the warehouse, packs it and ships it to the customer. Houghton uses a predetermined variable overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. According to the company's records,.08 direct labor-hours are required to fulfill an order for one item and the variable overhead rate is $6.25 per direct-labor hour. During July, Houghton shipped 290,000 orders using 23,000 direct labor-hours. The company incurred a total of $141,450 in variable overhead costs. The variable overhead efficiency variance during July was: $2,300 unfavorable. $1,250 favorable. $2,300 favorable. $1,250 unfavorable.

The variable overhead (VOH) efficiency variance during July is determined as follows. VOH efficiency variance = SR (AH SH). VOH efficiency variance = $6.25 per hour (23,000 hours 23,200 hours) = $1,250 (F).

14 Problem 7.6 Water Control Systems manufactures water pumps and uses a standard cost system. The standard overhead costs per water pump are based on direct labor hours and are as follows: Variable overhead (4 hours at $8 per hour) $32 Fixed overhead (4 hours at $5* per hour) 20 Total overhead cost per unit $52 * Based on a capacity of 100,000 direct labor hours per month. The following information is available for the month of November: 22,000 pumps were produced although 25,000 had been scheduled for production. 94,000 direct labor hours were worked at a total cost of $940,000. The standard direct labor rate is $9 per hour. The standard direct labor time per unit is four hours. Variable overhead costs were $740,000. Fixed overhead costs were $540,000 Water Control s variable overhead spending variance for November was A. $48,000 unfavorable. B. $60,000 favorable. C. $40,000 unfavorable. D. $12,000 favorable.

15 Problem 7.6 Water Control s variable overhead spending variance for November was D. $12,000 favorable. The variable overhead spending variance is the difference between actual variable overhead and the variable overhead based on the standard rate and the actual activity level. Thus, the variable overhead spending variance was $12,000 favorable [(94,000 actual hours $8 standard rate) $740,000 actual cost]. A. $48,000 unfavorable. Answer A is incorrect. The variable overhead efficiency variance is $48,000 unfavorable. B. $60,000 favorable. Answer B is incorrect. The variance of $60,000 favorable is based on 100,000 hours, not the actual hours of 94,000. C. $40,000 unfavorable. Answer C is incorrect. The fixed overhead spending variance is $40,000 unfavorable.

16 PROBLEM 7.6 #2 A fixed overhead volume variance based on standard direct labor hours measures A. Deviation from standard direct labor hour capacity. B. Deviation from the normal, or denominator, level of direct labor hours. C. Fixed overhead use. D. Fixed overhead efficiency.

17 Problem 7.6 #2: A fixed overhead volume variance based on standard direct labor hours measures B. Deviation from the normal, or denominator, level of direct labor hours. The fixed overhead volume variance measures the effect of not operating at the budgeted (denominator) activity level. It is the difference between budgeted fixed costs and the product of the standard fixed overhead application rate and the standard activity level for the actual output. A favorable variance means that activity was greater than expected and that fixed overhead was overapplied. It might be caused by, for example, hiring more workers to provide an extra shift. An unfavorable volume variance means that activity was less than budgeted (overhead was underapplied), for example, because of insufficient sales or a labor strike. Accordingly, the volume variance is usually outside the control of production management. Moreover, unlike other variances, it does not directly reflect a difference between actual and budgeted expenditure of resources. A. Deviation from standard direct labor hour capacity. Answer A is incorrect. The volume variance is not related to direct labor. C. Fixed overhead use. Answer C is incorrect. The volume variance is not related to overhead use. D. Fixed overhead efficiency. Answer D is incorrect. The volume variance is not related to overhead efficiency.

18 Problem 7.6 #3 Nanjones Company manufactures a line of products distributed nationally through wholesalers. Presented below are planned manufacturing data for the year and actual data for November of the current year. The company applies overhead based on planned machine hours using a predetermined annual rate. A. $6,000 unfavorable. B. $6,000 favorable. C. $2,000 favorable. D. $14,000 unfavorable.

19 Problem 7.6 #3 Answer C. $2,000 favorable. Answer C is correct. The variable overhead spending variance equals the difference between actual variable overhead and the product of the actual input and the budgeted application rate. At a variable overhead application rate (standard cost) of $10 per machine hour ($2,400, ,000 hours), the total standard cost for the 21,600 actual hours was $216,000. Given actual costs of $214,000, the favorable variance is $2,000. Answer A is incorrect. The variance is favorable. Answer B is incorrect. The amount of $6,000 is based on planned machine hours of 22,000. Answer D is incorrect. The variance is favorable.

20 Problem 7.7 Standard Costs Actual Costs Direct Material 600,000 units of materials at $2.00 each 700,000 units at $1.90 Direct Labor 60,000 hours allowed for actual output at $7 per hour 65,000 hours at $7.20 Overhead $8.00 per direct labor hour on normal capacity of 50,000 direct labor hours: $6.00 for variable overhead $2.00 for fixed overhead $396,000 variable $130,000 fixed

21 Problem 7.7 Calculate the following: 1) Material Price Variance AQ x (SP-AP) 2) Material Quantity Variance (SQ-AQ) x SP 3) Labor Rate Variance AQ x (SP-AP) 4) Labor Efficiency Variance (SQ-AQ) x SP 5) Variable Overhead Spending Variance (AQxSP)-AC 6) Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance(SQ-AQ)xSP 7) Fixed Overhead Spending Variance Flexible/Static budget Actual costs incurred 8) Fixed Overhead Efficiency Variance (Std hours allowed for actual outputs x Std rate) x Flexible/Static budget
