has the following standard cost sheet for its main product:

Direct Materials 2 feet at $5 per foot $10

Direct Labor 0.5 hours at $10 per hour $5

Variable overhead 0.5 hours at $2 per hour $1

Fixed overhead 0.5 hours at $4 per hour $2

Standard overhead 18

The fixed and variable overhead rates were based on expected activity of 3,200 hours.

During the year, the following actual results were recorded:
