Prepare a flexible budget based on the actual number of recliners sold. 2. Compute the cost variance and the efficiency variance for direct materials and for direct labor. For manufacturing overhead, compute the variable overhead cost, variable overhead efficiency, fixed overhead cost, and fixed overhead volume variances. Round to the nearest dollar. 3. Have Preston's managers done a good job or a poor job controlling materials, labor, and overhead costs? Why? 4. Describe how Preston's managers can benefit from the standard costing system. Preston Recliners manufactures leather recliners and uses flexible budgeting and a standard cost system. Preston allocates overhead based on yards of direct materials.

Compute the cost variance and the efficiency variance for direct materials and for direct labor. For manufacturing overhead, compute the variable overhead cost, variable overhead efficiency, fixed overhead cost, and fixed overhead volume variances. Round to the nearest dollar Bogin with the cost variances. Select the required formulas, compute the cost variances for direct materials and direct labor, and identify whether each variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).

Have Preston's managers done a good job or a poor job controlling materials, labor, and overhead costs? Why? The variances computed in Requirement 2 suggest that the managers have done a job controlling materials and labor costs. The direct materials cost variance and direct labor efficiency variance help offset the direct labor cost variance and direct materials efficiency variance. Managers have done a job controlling overhead costs as evidenced by the fact that V of the overhead variances are Requirement 4.
