Question

Assume that a company uses a standard cost system and applies overhead to production based on direct labor-hours. It provided the following excerpt from the standard cost card of its only product: Standard Hours Standard Rate Standard Cost Fixed manufacturing overhead 2 hours $ 6.00 per hour $ 12.00 During the most recent period, the following additional information was available: The fixed overhead budget variance was $10,000 F. The budgeted amount of fixed overhead cost was $285,000. 46,000 direct labor-hours were actually used to produce 24,100 units. What was the actual amount of fixed overhead cost incurred during the period

Answer 1

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the above information, the actual amount of fixed overhead cost incurred during the period is computed as

= Actual units produced × Fixed manufacturing overhead

Given that;

Actual units produced = 24,100

Fixed manufacturing overhead = $12

Then,

The actual cost of fixed overhead incurred for the period is;

= 24,100 × $12

= $289,200
