Trico Company set the following standard unit costs for its single product.

Direct materials (26 Ibs. @ $3.00 per Ib.) $ 78.00
Direct labor (6 hrs. @ $6.00 per hr.) 36.00
Factory overheadvariable (6 hrs. @ $4.00 per hr.) 24.00
Factory overheadfixed (6 hrs. @ $5.00 per hr.) 30.00
Total standard cost $ 168.00

The predetermined overhead rate is based on a planned operating volume of 60% of the productive capacity of 50,000 units per quarter. The following flexible budget information is available.

Operating Levels
50% 60% 70%
Production in units 25,000 30,000 35,000
Standard direct labor hours 150,000 180,000 210,000
Budgeted overhead
Fixed factory overhead $ 900,000 $ 900,000 $ 900,000
Variable factory overhead $ 600,000 $ 720,000 $ 840,000

During the current quarter, the company operated at 70% of capacity and produced 35,000 units of product; actual direct labor totaled 204,000 hours. Units produced were assigned the following standard costs:

Direct materials (910,000 Ibs. @ $3.00 per Ib.) $ 2,730,000
Direct labor (210,000 hrs. @ $6.00 per hr.) 1,260,000
Factory overhead (210,000 hrs. @ $9.00 per hr.) 1,890,000
Total standard cost $ 5,880,000

Actual costs incurred during the current quarter follow:

Direct materials (905,000 Ibs. @ $3.10) $ 2,805,500
Direct labor (204,000 hrs. @ $5.75) 1,173,000
Fixed factory overhead costs 1,809,057
