SB (Static) The Platter Valley factory of Bybee Industries...
[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]
The Platter Valley factory of Bybee Industries manufactures field boots. The cost of each boot includes direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing (factory) overhead. The firm traces all direct costs to products, and it assigns overhead cost to products based on direct labor hours.
The company budgeted $15,000 variable factory overhead cost, $90,000 for fixed factory overhead cost and 2,500 direct labor hours (its practical capacity) to manufacture 5,000 pairs of boots in March.
The factory used 2,700 direct labor hours in March to manufacture 4,800 pairs of boots and spent $15,600 on variable overhead during the month. The actual fixed overhead cost incurred for the month was $92,000.
( DLH = Direct Labor Hours, FB = Flexible Budget, AQ= Actual Quantity, SQ= Standard Quantity, AP = Actual Price, AH Actual Hours, SH= Standard Hours, and SP= Standard Price)
Exercises 15-31(Static) Three-Variance vs. Four-Variance Analysis of the Total Factory Overhead Variance [LO 15-2,15-3]
The Platter Valley factory of Bybee Industries currently uses a four-variance analysis of the total factory overhead cost variance but i thinking of changing to a three-variance analysis.
Required:
Compute the total overhead spending variance, the (variable overhead) efficiency variance, and the production volume variance fc March and indicate whether each variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).
Prepare the appropriate journal entries at the end of March to record each of the following: (a) the total overhead spending varian (b) the (variable overhead) efficiency variance, and (c) the production volume variance. Assume that all overhead costs are recorded a single account called "Factory Overhead."
