Thank you for your help
Deluxe, Inc. uses a standard cost system and provides the following information. Deluxe allocates manutacturing overhead to production based on standard direct labor hours. Deluxe reported the following actual results for 2024: actual number of units produced, 1,000; actual variable overhead, $2,300; actual fixed overhead, $3,200; actual direct labor hours, 1,500 Requirement 1. Compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances and fixed overhead cost and volume variances. Begin with the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances. Select the required formulas, compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances, and identify whether each variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). (Abbreviations used: AC = actual cost; AQ= actual quantity; FOH= fixed overhead; SC= standard cost; SQ= standard quantity; VOH= variable overhead.) variances, and identify whether each variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). (Abbreviations used: AC= actual cost; AQ= actual quantity; FOH= fixed overhead; SC= standard cost; SQ= standard quantity.) Requirement 2. Explain why the variances are favorable or unfavorable. The variable overhead cost variance is because the actual cost per direct labor hour was than the standard cost per direct labor hour. The variable overhead efficiency variance is because management used direct labor hours than standard and variable overhead is applied (incurred) based on direct labor. The fixed overhead cost variance is because the total fixed overhead cost was than the amount budgeted for tota fixed overhead. The fixed overhead volume variance is because total fixed overhead cost allocated to units was than the total budgeted fixed overhead cost.
