Question 1: The total overhead budget of a company that uses three level analysis of variances is $140,000 per month, out of which fixed overheads amount to $100,000. The budgeted production volume is 5,000 units of output per month. The standard time per unit is 4 hours. During December 2019, the company worked 20,100 hours and produced 4,800 units. Actual factory overheads incurred during December 2019 amounted to 150,000. Calculate (i) efficiency variance, (ii) volume variance, and (iii) expense variance. Also offer a critical analysis of your answers.

Prepare a variance analysis between the budget and actual. You should present three variances: (1) the difference in profit due to selling more or less units, (2) the difference in profit due to selling units at a higher or lower price, and (3) the difference in profit due to producing more or less units. In terms of variances, discuss the budget and the actual performance and changes needed to make in the budget. (Please answer all questions including discussion question)...

Predetermined Overhead Rate, Overhead Variances, Journal Entries Craig Company uses a predetermined overhead rate to assign overhead to jobs. Because Craig's production is machine intensive, overhead is applied on the basis of machine hours. The expected overhead for the year was $6,461,400, and the practical level of activity is 363,000 machine hours.    During the year, Craig used 369,500 machine hours and incurred actual overhead costs of $6,502,100. Craig also had the following balances of applied overhead in its accounts: Work-in-process...
