Carol Morgan manages the production division of Solomon Corporation. Ms. Morgans responsibility report for the month of August follows:

	Budget			Actual			Variance
Controllable costs
Raw materials	$	30,680		$	35,880		$	5,200	U
Labor		9,282			14,310			5,028	U
Maintenance		3,500			5,100			1,600	U
Supplies		2,600			1,750			850	F
Total	$	46,062		$	57,040		$	10,978	U

The budget had called for 5,200 pounds of raw materials at $5.90 per pound, and 5,200 pounds were used during August; however, the purchasing department paid $6.90 per pound for the materials. The wage rate used to establish the budget was $18.20 per hour. On August 1, however, it increased to $21.20 as the result of an inflation index provision in the union contract. Furthermore, the purchasing department did not provide the materials needed in accordance with the production schedule, which forced Ms. Morgan to use 110 hours of overtime at a $31.80 rate. The projected 510 hours of labor in the budget would have been sufficient had it not been for the 110 hours of overtime. In other words, 620 hours of labor were used in August.
