Baird Company makes classic Polish sausage. The company uses a standard cost system to help control costs. Manufacturing overhead is applied to production on the basis of standard direct labor-hours. According to the companys planning budget, the following manufacturing overhead costs should be incurred at an activity level of 19,000 labor-hours (the denominator activity level):

Variable manufacturing overhead cost	$	57,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost		95,000
Total manufacturing overhead cost	$	152,000

During the most recent year, the following operating results were recorded:

Activity:
Actual labor-hours worked		16,000
Standard labor-hours allowed for the actual output		17,000
Cost:
Actual variable manufacturing overhead cost incurred	$	65,600
Actual fixed manufacturing overhead cost incurred	$	80,750

At the end of the year, the companys Manufacturing Overhead account contained the following data:

Manufacturing Overhead
Actual	146,350	Applied	136,000
	10,350

Management would like to determine the cause of the $10,350 underapplied overhead.

Required:

1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate. Break the rate down into variable and fixed cost elements.

2. Show how the $136,000 Applied figure in the Manufacturing Overhead account was computed.

3. Breakdown the $10,350 underapplied overhead into four components: (1) variable overhead rate variance, (2) variable overhead efficiency variance, (3) fixed overhead budget variance, and (4) fixed overhead volume variance.
