Patel and Sons Inc. uses a standard cost system to apply factory overhead costs to units produced. Practical capacity for the plant is defined as 50,100 machine hours per year, which represents 25,050 units of output. Annual budgeted fixed factory overhead costs are $250,500 and the budgeted variable factory overhead cost rate is $2.00 per unit. Factory overhead costs are applied on the basis of standard machine hours allowed for units produced. Budgeted and actual output for the year was 18,500 units, which took 39,100 machine hours. Actual fixed factory overhead costs for the year amounted to $246,100 while the actual variable overhead cost per unit was $1.90. Based on the information provided above, provide the appropriate journal entries: (a) to record the overhead cost variances for the veriod (thereby closing out the balance in the Factory Overhead account), and (b) to close the variance accounts to the Cost of Goods jold (CGS) account at the end of the period. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to nearest whole lollar amount. If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
