Determine the actual machine-hours used


Response to the following problem:

Consider the following two situations-cases A and B- independently. Data refer to operations for April 2012. For each situation, assume standard costing. Also assume the use of a flexible budget for control of variable and fixed manufacturing overhead based on machine-hours.

 

Cases

A

      B

(1) Fixed manufacturing overhead incurred

$84,920

  $23,180

(2) Variable manufacturing overhead incurred

$120,000

 

(3) Denominator level in machine-hours

 

1,000

(4) Standard machine-hours allowed for actual output achieved

6,200

 

(5) Fixed manufacturing overhead (per standard machine-hour)

 

 

Flexible-Budget Data:

 

 

(6) Variable manufacturing overhead (per standard machine-hour)

 

 $    42.00

(7)   Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead

$ 88,200

 $20,000

(8)   Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead'

 

 

(9)   Total budgeted manufacturing overhead'

 

 

Additional Data:

 

 

(10)      Standard variable manufacturing overhead allocated

5124,000

 

(11)      Standard fixed manufacturing overhead allocated

$ 86,800

 

(12)      Production-volume variance

 

$ 4,000 F

(13) Variable manufacturing overhead spending variance

$     4,600 F

$ 2,282 F

(14)      Variable manufacturing overhead efficiency variance

 

$ 2,478 F

(15)      Fixed manufacturing overhead spending variance

 

 

(16)      Actual machine-hours used
