The following budget data pertain to the Machining Department of Yolkenverst Co.: Maximum capacity 62,000 units Machine hours per unit 2.50 Variable factory overhead $ 4.20 per machine hour Fixed factory overhead $ 432,500 The company prepared the budget at 82% of the maximum capacity level. The department uses machine hours as the basis for applying standard factory overhead costs to production. During the year the Machining Department produced 50,000 units, consuming 127,500 machine hours and incurring $432,500 of fixed overhead. For the current year the department has a fixed overhead production volume variance, rounded to the nearest whole dollar, of: (Round your intermediate calculation to 2 decimal places.) rev: 10_22_2

Answer:

Yolkenverst Co.

Machining Department

For the current year the department has a fixed overhead production volume variance, rounded to the nearest whole dollar, of:

= $7,148.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Maximum capacity 62,000 units

Machine hours per unit 2.50

Variable factory overhead $ 4.20 per machine hour

Fixed factory overhead $ 432,500

Planned capacity units to be produced = 50,840 units (62,000 * 82%)

Actual capacity units produced = 50,000 units

Production volume variance = 840 units (50,840 - 50,000)

Fixed factory overhead rate of maximum capacity = $6.96 ($432,500/62,000)

Standard fixed overhead rate based on planned capacity = $8.51 ($432,500/50,840)

Fixed overhead production volume variance = production volume variance * standard fixed overhead rate based on planned capacity

= 840 * $8.51

= $7,148.4

= $7,148
