Griffen Company makes pipe using metal. The company uses a standard costing system. Variable overhead is allocated on the basis of direct material usage (pounds). Overhead is allocated to units based on expected production of 13,200 units. Griffen maintains a materials inventory, so the amount of material used is not necessarily the same as the amount of material purchased in any one month. The standard cost sheet for a unit of pipe follows: Direct material Direct labor Variable overhead Fixed overhead 7 pounds S 42.00 3 hours $26 78.00 7 pounds@s 3 21.00 21.00 $162.00 August financial results show that the average purchase price of metal was $6.30 per pound. The purchase price variance $35,100 unfavorable. The variable overhead efficiency variance was 9,200 unfavorable. Good output produced totaled 16,200 units Required a.
