The Hayes Chemical Company produces a chemical used in dry cleaning. Its accounting system uses standard costs. The standards per 0.50-gallon can of chemical call for 1.20 gallons of material and 1.50 hours of labor. 11.20 gallons of material are needed to produce a 0.50 -gallon can of product due to evaporation. The standard cost per gallon of material is $5. The standard cost per hour for labor is $9. Overhead is applied at the rate of $7.77 per can. Expected production is 21,500 cans with fixed overhead per year of $81,055 and variable overhead of $4 per unit (a 0.50 -gallon can). During 2021,22,800 cans were produced; 36,200 gallons of material were purchased at a cost of $263,174;32,800 gallons of material were used in production. The cost of direct labor incurred in 2021 was $276,438 based on an average actual wage rate of $7.84 per hour. Actual overhead for 2021 was $219,100. Calculate material, labor, and overhead variances. (Round intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places, e.3. 14.37 and final answers O decimal places, es. 125. Enter all variances as a positive number.)
