Flexible Overhead Budget

Leno Manufacturing Company prepared the following factory overhead cost budget for the Press Department for October of the current year, during which it expected to require 13,000 hours of productive capacity in the department:

Variable overhead cost:
Indirect factory labor	$111,800
Power and light	3,900
Indirect materials	40,300
Total variable overhead cost		$156,000
Fixed overhead cost:
Supervisory salaries	$54,600
Depreciation of plant and equipment	34,320
Insurance and property taxes	21,840
Total fixed overhead cost		110,760
Total factory overhead cost		$266,760

Assuming that the estimated costs for November are the same as for October, prepare a flexible factory overhead cost budget for the Press Department for November for 11,000, 13,000, and 15,000 hours of production. Round your interim computations to the nearest cent, if required. Enter all amounts as positive numbers.

Direct Materials, Direct Labor, and Factory Overhead Cost Variance Analysis

Mackinaw Inc. processes a base chemical into plastic. Standard costs and actual costs for direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead incurred for the manufacture of 5,600 units of product were as follows:

	Standard Costs		Actual Costs
Direct materials	7,300 lb. at $5.00		7,200 lb. at $4.80
Direct labor	1,400 hrs. at $17.30		1,430 hrs. at $17.60
Factory overhead	Rates per direct labor hr.,
	based on 100% of normal
	capacity of 1,460 direct
	labor hrs.:
		Variable cost, $3.20	$4,440 variable cost
		Fixed cost, $5.10	$7,446 fixed cost

Each unit requires 0.25 hour of direct labor.
