Bluecap Co. uses a standard cost system and flexible budgets for control purposes. The following budgeted information pertains to 2019:
| Denominator volume—number of units | 7,000 | ||
| Denominator volume—percent of capacity | 70 | % | |
| Denominator volume—standard direct labor hours (DLHs) | 35,000 | ||
| Budgeted variable factory overhead cost at denominator volume | $ | 102,700 | |
| Total standard factory overhead rate per DLH | $ | 15.10 | |
During 2019, Bluecap worked 44,000 DLHs and manufactured 9,000
units. The actual factory overhead cost for the year was $15,000
greater than the flexible budget amount for the units produced, of
which $5,000 was due to fixed factory overhead. In preparing a
budget for 2020 Bluecap decided to raise the level of operation to
90% of capacity (a level it considers to be "practical capacity"),
to manufacture 8,400 units at a budgeted total of 25,200
DLHs.
The variable overhead spending variance in 2019 for
Bluecap Co. (to the nearest whole dollar) was: (Round your
intermediate calculation to 2 decimal places.)
