Vernon Company manufactures molded candles that are finished by hand. The company developed the following standards for a new line of drip candles. Amount of direct materials per candle Price of direct materials per pound Quantity of labor per unit Price of direct labor per hour Total budgeted fixed overhead 1.30 pounds $ 0.70 1.50 hours $ 7.30/hour $ 128,800 During Year 2, Vernon planned to produce 23,000 drip candles. Production lagged behind expectations, and it actually produced only 16,000 drip candles. At year-end, direct materials purchased and used amounted to 22,500 pounds at a unit price of $0.64 per pound. Direct labor costs were actually $6.70 per hour and 26,200 actual hours were worked to produce the drip candles. Overhead for the year actually amounted to $96,000. Overhead is applied to products using a predetermined overhead rate based on estimated units. Required a.&b. Compute the standard cost per candle for direct materials, direct labor, overhead and also the total standard cost for one drip candle. c.&d. Compute the actual cost per candle for direct materials, direct labor, overhead and also the total actual cost per candle. e. Compute the price and usage variances for direct materials and direct labor. f. Compute the fixed cost spending and volume variances.
