Question:This Try It! continues the previous Try It! for Tipton Company, a shirt manufacturer. During June, Tipton made 1,200 shirts but had budgeted production at 1,400 shirts. Tipton gathered the following additional data:
Variable overhead cost standard \(0.50 per DLHr
Direct labor efficiency standard 2.00 DLHr per shirt
Actual amount of direct labor hours 2,520 DLHr
Actual cost of variable overhead \)1,512
Fixed overhead cost standard \(0.25 per DLHr
Budgeted fixed overhead \)700
Actual cost of fixed overhead $750
Calculate the following variances:
13. Variable overhead cost variance
14. Variable overhead efficiency variance
15. Total variable overhead variance
16. Fixed overhead cost variance
17. Fixed overhead volume variance
18. Total fixed overhead variance
