Indicate whether each of the variances is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).
What will be an ideal response?
Lubricants:
Variable overhead rate variance = (AH × AR) ? (AH × SR)
= $35,151 ? (8,080 hours × $4.20 per hour)
= $35,151 ? $33,936
= $1,215 U
Supplies:
Variable overhead rate variance = (AH × AR) ? (AH × SR)
= $23,038 ? (8,080 hours × $2.90 per hour)
= $23,038 ? $23,432
= $394 F
