The condensed form of Nordstrop Company's flexible budget for manufacturing overhead follows: Overhead Costs Variable cost Fixed cost Total overhead cost Cost Formula (per machine- hour) $1.05 Machine-Hours 8,500 9,500 10,500 $ 8,925 $ 9,975 $11,025 28,900 28,900 28,900 $37,825 $38,875 $39,925 The following information is available for a recent period: a. The denominator activity of 8,500 machine-hours was chosen to compute the predetermined overhead rate. b. At the 8,500 standard machine-hours level of activity, the company should produce 2,125 units of product. c. The company's actual operating results were as follows: Number of units produced Actual machine-hours Actual variable overhead costs Actual fixed overhead costs 2,425 8,500 $ 9,800 $ 29,000 2. What were the standard hours allowed for the year's actual output? (Do not round intermediate calculations.) Standard hours for actual production MHs 3. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances and the fixed overhead budget and volume variances. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favourable, "U" for unfavourable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).)
