Current Attempt in Progress

Waterway Company manufactures deep-sea fishing rods, which it distributes internationally through a chain of wholesalers. The following data are taken from the budget prepared at the beginning of the year by Waterway's controller. The company applies overhead on the basis of machine hours.

		Annual Budget		May Budget
Variable manufacturing overhead		$2,603,700		$264,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead		$1,201,080		$100,090
Direct labor hours		49,800		4,150
Machine hours		236,700		24,000

During the month of May, Waterway used 4,240 direct labor hours and 21,650 machine hours. The flexible budget for the month allowed 4,340 direct labor hours and 21,050 machine hours. Actual fixed manufacturing overhead incurred was $103,700; variable manufacturing overhead incurred was $236,750. (a) Calculate the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances for May. (Round per unit value to 2 decimal places, e.g. 52.75 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,725. If variance is zero, select "Not Applicable" and enter 0 for the amounts.)
