Glavine & Co. produces a single product, each unit of which requires three direct labor hours (DLHs). Practical capacity (for setting the factory overhead application rate) is 60,000 DLHs, on an annual basis. The information below pertains to the most recent year:


Standard direct labor hours (DLHs) per unit produced		3.00
Practical capacity, in DLHs (per year)		60,000
Variable overhead efficiency variance	$	20,000	unfavorable (U)
Actual production for the year		17,000	units
Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead	$	1,200,000
Standard direct labor wage rate	$	20.00	per DLH
Total overhead cost variance for the year	$	200,000	favorable (F)
Direct labor efficiency variance	$	40,000	unfavorable (U)

Required:

1. What was the standard variable overhead rate per DLH during the year?

2. What was the total overhead application rate per direct labor hour (DLH) during the year?

3. What was the total actual overhead cost incurred during the year?

4. What was the Production Volume Variance for the year? Was this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)?

5. What was the total Overhead Spending Variance for the year? Was this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)?
