Exercise 10-4 (Algo) Direct Labor and Variable Manufacturing Overhead Variances (LO10-2, LO10-3] Erie Company manufactures a mobile fitness device called the Jogging Mate. The company uses standards to control its costs. The labor standards that have been set for one Jogging Mate are as follows: Standard Standard Rate Standard per Hour Cost 24 minutes $ 6.00 $ 2.40 During August, 8,220 hours of direct labor time were needed to make 19,200 units of the Jogging Mate. The direct labor cost totaled $48,498 for the month. Hours Required: 1. What is the standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to makes 19,200 Jogging Mates? 2. What is the standard labor cost allowed (SH SR) to make 19,200 Jogging Mates? 3. What is the labor spending variance? 4. What is the labor rate variance and the labor efficiency variance? 5. The budgeted variable manufacturing overhead rate is $4.70 per direct labor-hour. During August, the company incurred $41,100 in variable manufacturing overhead cost. Compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for the month. (For requirements 3 through 5, indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations.) 1. Standard labor-hours allowed 2. Standard labor cost allowed 3. Labor spending variance 4. Labor rate variance 4.
