Arvind Manufacturing produces ceramic teapots. Arvind allocates overhead based on the number of direct labor hours. The company is looking into using a standard cost system and has developed the following standards (one "unit" is a batch of 100 teapots) (Click the icon to view the standards.) Actual cost and operating data from the most recent month are as follows: (Click the icon to view the actual results.) All manufacturing overhead is allocated on the basis of direct labor hours Read the requirements Data Table Data Table Requirement 1. Calculate the standard cost of one batch. Standards: Standard cost Standard cost per batch Direct materials Direct labor Direct material 50 pounds per batch at $5.00 per pound Direct labor 5.0 hours per batch at $12.00 per hour Variable MOH standard rate $4.00 per direct labor hour Predetermined fixed MOH standard rate $5.00 per direct labor hour Total budgeted fixed MOH cost $1,600 Purchased 2,440 pounds at a cost of $4.90 per pound Used 2,200 pounds in producing 40 batches Actual direct labor cost of $2,583 at an average direct labor cost per hour of $12.60 Actual variable MOH $943 Actual fixed MOH $2,000 Variable MOH Fixed MOH Total standard cost Requirement 2a.
