(Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting F for favorable, U for unfavorable, and None for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.) [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Adger Corporation is a service company that measures its output based on the number of customers served. The company provided the following fixed and variable cost estimates that it uses for budgeting purposes and the actual results for May as shown below: When preparing its planning budget the company estimated that it would serve 30 customers per month; however, during May the company actually served 35 customers.

A = (C9*C4)- B13B = B13-(C9*C4)C = (C9*C4)- (150,000*8)D = (150,000-(C9*6))*8 (b) Calculate the following for month 1: (i) Sales volume variance and state whether it is favourable or adverse; (ii) Sales price variance and state whether it is favourable or adverse.
Assume that a company's planned level of activity is 1,000 hours and its actual level of activity is 1,100 hours. Based on this information, the company's activity variance for revenue will be: Multiple Choice either favorable or unfavorable depending on the cost formula. zero. unfavorable. favorable.
At the end of the period, the factory overhead account has a credit balance of 10,000. (a) Is the total factory cost variance favorable or unfavorable? (b) Are the controllable and volume variances favorable or unfavorable?
Matching graphs with descriptions of cost and revenue behavior. (D. Green, adapted) Given here are a number of graphs. The horizontal axis of each graph represents the units produced over the year, and the vertical axis represents total cost or revenues. Indicate by number which graph best fits the situation or item described (a–h). Some graphs may be used more than once; some may not apply to any of the situations. Direct material costs Supervisors’ salaries for one shift and two shifts A cost-volume-profit graph Mixed costs—for example, car rental fixed charge plus a rate per mile driven Depreciation of plant, computed on a straight-line basis Data supporting the use of a variable-cost rate, such as manufacturing labor cost of $14 per unit produced Incentive bonus plan that pays managers $0.10 for every unit produced above some level of production Interest expense on $2 million borrowed at a fixed rate of interest
Management should focus its sales and production efforts on the product or products that will provide a. the lowest product costs b. the lowest direct labor hours c. the highest sales revenue d. the maximum contribution margin The following data relate to direct labor costs for the current period: Standard costs 7,500 hours at $11.70 Actual costs 6,000 hours at $12.00 What is the direct labor time variance? a. $18,000 favorable b. $17,550 unfavorable c. $17,550 favorable d. $18,000 unfavorable Which of the following is not a factory overhead allocation method? a. factory costing b. multiple departmental rates c. activity-based costing d. single plantwide rate
Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Antuan Company set the following standard costs per unit for its product. Direct materials (3.0 pounds @ $4.00 per pound) Direct labor (1.8 hours @ $12.00 per hour) $ 12.00 21.60 33.30 Overhead (1.8 hours @ $18.50 per hour) Standard cost per unit $ 66.90 The standard overhead rate ($18.50 per direct labor hour) is based on a predicted activity level of 75% of the factory's capacity of 20,000 units per month. Following are the company's budgeted overhead costs per month at the 75% capacity level. Overhead Budget (75% Capacity) Variable overhead costs Indirect materials $ 15,000 Indirect labor 75,000 Power 15,000 Maintenance 30,000 135,000 Total variable overhead costs Fixed overhead costs Depreciation-Building 24,000 70,000 Depreciation-Machinery Taxes and insurance 16,000 Supervisory salaries 254,500 Total fixed overhead costs 364,500
3. Compute the direct labor variance, including its rate and efficiency variances. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting favorable, unfavorable, or no variance. Round "Rate per hour" answers to two decimal places.) The drop down options under "actual cost" "standard cost" and the middle box for the first row are: actual rate, standard rate The drop down options for the left bottom 3 rows are: total variable overhead cost variance, variable overhead efficiency variance, variable overhead spending variance, volume variance, direct material variance, Direct labor efficiency variance, direct labor rate variance, direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance. the drop down options for the right yellow 3 columns are: favorable, unfavorable, no variance please use the exact format as shown in photos. Thank you !

Increasing Work in Pocess Inventory based on actual Variable OH rate. c. Decreasing Work in Pocess Inventory based on standard Variable OH rate. d. Increasing Work in Pocess Inventory based on standard Variable OH rate. 2. Debiting Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance means we had an unfavorable outcome. a. True b. False 3. Crediting Variable Overhead Spending Variance means we had an unfavorable outcome for Variable Overhead Spending Variance a. True b. False 4. We normally credit Factory Overhead to apply the actual cost to Overhead to the Work in Process a. True b.False
Please redo this problem and show me steps on how to get the following questions correct, its stating I am wrong. Please help Direct Labor Variances The following data relate to labor cost for production of 6,600 cellular telephones: Actual: 4,480 hrs. at $16.10 $72,128 Standard: 4,410 hrs. at $16.40 $72,324 a. Determine the direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total direct labor cost variance. Enter all values as a positive number and then identify the variance (e.g. Favorable or Unfavorable) in the adjacent column. Rate variance $ Favorable Time variance $ Unfavorable Total direct labor cost variance $ Favorable b. The employees may have been less-experienced or poorly trained, thereby resulting in a lower labor rate than planned. The lower level of experience or training may have resulted in less efficient performance. Thus, the actual time required was more than standard. LIz C
