Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Sedona Company set the following standard costs for one unit of its product for 2017.

Direct material (20 Ibs. @ $2.50 per Ib.) $ 50.00

Direct labor (10 hrs. @ $22.00 per hr.) 220.00

Factory variable overhead (10 hrs. @ $4.00 per hr.) 40.00

Factory fixed overhead (10 hrs. @ $1.60 per hr.) 16.00

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.

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

AH = Actual Hours SH = Standard Hours AVR = Actual Variable Rate SVR = Standard Variable Rate SFR = Standard Fixed Rate

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
