Overhead Application, Overhead Variances, Journal Entries Plimpton Company produces countertop ovens. Plimpton uses a standard costing system. The standard costing system relies on direct labor hours to assign overhead costs to production. The direct labor standard indicates that two direct labor hours should be used for every oven produced. The normal production volume is 100,000 units. The budgeted overhead for the coming year is as follows: Fixed overhead Variable overhead At normal volume. $770,000 444,000 Plimpton applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. During the year, Plimpton produced 97,000 units, worked 196,000 direct labor hours, and incurred actual fixed overhead costs of $780,100 and actual variable overhead costs of $435,620. Required: 1. Calculate the standard fixed overhead rate and the standard variable overhead rate. Round your answers to the nearest cent. Use rounded answers in the subsequent computations. Standard fixed overhead rate per direct labor hour h Standard variable overhead rate per direct labor hour 2. Compute the applied fixed overhead and the applied variable overhead. Use the application rates from part (1) in your calculations. Fixed Variable What is the total fixed overhead variance? What is the total variable overhead variance? 3. Break down the total fixed overhead variance into a spending variance and a volume variance. Spending Variance Volume Variance hat is the total variable overhead Varance Break down the total fixed overhead variance into a spending variance and a volume variance, pending Variance olume Variance Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. Spending Variance $ Efficiency Variance Now assume that Pimpton's cost accounting system reveals only the total actual overhead. In this case, a three-variance analysis can be performed. Using the relationships between a three- and four-variance analysis, indicate the values for The three overhead variances Volume variance Variable overhead efficiency variance Spending variance Book Print Item e three overhead variances. olume variance Variable overhead efficiency variance Spending variance . Prepare journal entries (1) to apply overhead to production, (2) to record the actual overhead costs incurred, (3) to record the variable and fixed overhead variances, and (4) to close the variance accounts at the end of the year.
