Patel and Sons Inc. uses a standard cost system to apply factory overhead costs to units produced. Practical capacity for the plant is defined as 54,900 machine hours per year, which represents 27,450 units of output. Annual budgeted fixed factory overhead costs are $274,500 and the budgeted variable factory overhead cost rate is $3.60 per unit. Factory overhead costs are applied on the basis of standard machine hours allowed for units produced. Budgeted and actual output for the year was 21,100 units, which took 43,900 machine hours. Actual fixed factory overhead costs for the year amounted to $263,700 while the actual variable overhead cost per unit was $3.50.

Based on the information provided above, calculate the following factory overhead variances for the year. Indicate whether each variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)

(a)Total overhead variance

(b)Total flexible-budget variance

(c)Production volume variance

Based on the information provided above, provide an appropriate end-of-year closing entry for each of the following two independent situations: (a) the net factory overhead cost variance is closed entirely to Cost of Goods Sold (CSG), and (b) the net factory overhead variance is allocated among WIP Inventory, Finished Goods Inventory, and CGS using the following percentages: 10%, 20%, and 70%, respectively. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.
