Flexible Budget, Standard Cost Variances, T-Accounts

Ingles Company manufactures external hard drives. At the beginning of the period, the following plans for production and costs were revealed:

Units to be produced and sold	25,000
Standard cost per unit:
Direct materials	$ 10
Direct labor	8
Variable overhead	4
Fixed overhead	3
Total unit cost	$ 25

During the year, 24,800 units were produced and sold. The following actual costs were incurred:

Direct materials	$263,872
Direct labor	204,352
Variable overhead	107,310
Fixed overhead	73,908

There were no beginning or ending inventories of direct materials. The direct materials price variance was $9,672 unfavorable.
