Performance Report Based on Actual Production

Palladium Inc. produces a variety of household cleaning products. Palladium's controller has developed standard costs for the following four overhead items:

Overhead Item	Total Fixed Cost	Variable Rate per Direct Labor Hour
Maintenance	$ 86,000	$0.20
Power		0.45
Indirect labor	140,000	2.10
Rent	35,000

Next year, Palladium expects production to require 90,000 direct labor hours.

Assume that actual production required 98,000 direct labor hours at standard. The actual overhead costs incurred were as follows:

Maintenance	$90,000		Indirect labor	$336,000
Power	41,200		Rent	35,000
