DeNozio Enterprises gathered the following information for the month of July:
Overhead flexible budget:
Gordon actually produced 13,000 units in 16,400 machine hours. Total actual overhead cost of $82,000 consisted of $33,000 variable costs and $49,000 fixed costs. The standard variable and fixed overhead rates are based on a master (static) budget of 12,000 units. Assume the allocation base for fixed overhead costs is the number of units.
Required:
1. Compute the total manufacturing overhead cost variance.
2. Compute the variable overhead flexible budget variance.
3. Compute the fixed overhead budget variance.
4. Compute the production volume variance.
