1. Prepare a materials variance information table showing thestandard price, the actual price, the standard quantity, and theactual quantity.
2. Calculate the materials price and usage variances. Indicatewhether the variances are favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).
3. Prepare a labor variance information table showing the standardprice, the actual price, the standard hours, and the actualhours.
4. Calculate the labor price and usage variances. Indicate whetherthe variances are favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).
5. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate, assuming that Bensonuses the number of units as the allocation base.
6. Calculate the fixed cost spending variance. Indicate whetherthe variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).
7. Calculate the fixed cost volume variance. Indicate whether thevariance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).
