Russ Industries uses flexible budgets. At normal capacity of 16,500 units, budgeted manufacturing overhead is: $59,400 variable and $392,000 fixed. If the company had actual overhead costs of $449,000 for 15,200 units produced, what is the difference between actual and budgeted costs?
NORMAL CAPACITY | 16500 UNITS | |
BUDGETED MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD | ||
VARIABLE | $59400 | |
FIXED | $392000 | |
BUDGETED MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD AT 15200 UNITS | ||
VARIABLE | 59400/16500*15200 | |
54720 | ||
FIXED | 392000 | |
TOTAL BUDGETED OVERHEAD COSTS | 446720 | |
ACTUAL MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD AT 15200 UNITS | 449000 | |
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACTUAL AND BUDGETED COSTS= | ACTUAL MANUFACTURING COSTS-BUDGETED MANUFACTURING COSTS | |
2280 | ADVERSE | |
NOTE: VARIABLE MANUFACTURING COSTS VARY WITH NUMBER OF GOOD PRODUCED BUT IN CASE OF FIXED MANUFACTURING COSTS, IT REMAINS UNCHANGED IRRESPECTIVE OF THE NUMBER OF GOODS PRODUCED |
