Req 1
Planned Activity: 26000 MH
Fixed OH rate: $ 13.20 per hour
Budgeted Fixed OH: 26000 MH @ 13.20 = $343200
Req 2:
Std Variable OH rate per hour: $ 7.90 per hour
Actual Hours: 26700 MH
Actual variable OH: $202,920
Vvariable OH spending = Actul MH worked*Std OH rate - Actual Varriable OH
26700*7.90 - 202,920 = 8010 F
Req 3:
Std Fixed OH for actuall output: 15700*2 hours @ 13.20 = $ 414,480
Budgeted Fixed OH: $ 343200
Fixed OH Volume variancec= Std Fixed OH - Budgeted Oh
414480-343200 = 71280 F
Req 4-a
Budgeted Fixed OH: 343200
Actual fixed OH: 355110
Company spent more than anticipated.
Req 4-b:
Fixed OH Budget Variance= Budgeted OH -Actual OH
343200-355110 = 11910 U
Q5.
Variable OH actual incurred 202920
Add: Variable OH applied 210930
(26700 MH @7..90)
Over-applied 8010
