Granison Corporation applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. Budgeted production for the period was set at 10,000 units. Total manufacturing overhead is budgeted at $1,600,000, of which 60% is fixed. The following material and labor standard costs were developed for the only product of Granison Corporation:
Standards
	Quantity	Cost
Materials	4 Feet	$14 per foot
Direct Labor	8 Hours	$10 per hour
The following information is available regarding the company's actual operations for the period:
