The standard cost sheet for Chambers Company, which manufactures one product, follows:

Direct materials, 30 yards at $2.00 per yard $ 60
Direct labor, 6 hours at $20 per hour 120
Factory overhead applied at 70% of direct labor
(variable costs = $60; fixed costs = $24) 84
Variable selling and administrative 83
Fixed selling and administrative 59
Total unit costs $ 406

Standards have been computed based on a master budget activity level of 30,700 direct labor-hours per month. Actual activity for the past month was as follows:

Materials used 160,000 yards at $2.05 per yard
Direct labor 27,300 hours at $22.00 per hour
Total factory overhead $ 465,000
Production 4,300 units

Required:

Prepare variance analyses for the variable and fixed costs. Materials are purchased as they are used. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, or "U" for unfavorable. If there is no effect, do not select either option.)
