Weller Companys flexible budget for manufacturing overhead (in condensed form) follows: Cost Formula (per machine Machine-Hours Overhead Costs hour) 8,000 9,000 10,000 Variable costs $1.05 $ 8,400 $ 9,450 $10,500 Fixed costs 24,800 24,800 24,800 Total Overhead Costs $33,200 $34,250 $35,300

The following information is available for a recent period: a. The denominator activity of 8,000 machine-hours was chosen to compute the predetermined overhead rate. b. At the 8,000 standard machine-hours level of activity, the company should produce 3,200 units of product. c. The companys actual operating results were as follows:

Number of units produced 3,500 Actual machine-hours 8,500 Actual variable overhead costs $9,860 Actual fixed overhead costs $25,100 Required: 1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate and break it down into variable and fixed cost elements. 2. What were the standard hours allowed for the years output? 3. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances and the fixed overhead budget and volume variances.
