e. Variance
1. A summarized budget for several levels of volume thatseparates variable costs from fixed costs.
2. A budget prepared for only one level of sales.
3. The difference between an actual amount and thebudgeted amount.
4. The difference arising because the company actuallyearned more or less revenue, or incurred more or lesscost, than expected for the actual level of output.
5. The difference arising only because the number ofunits actually sold differs from the static budget units.
McCarthy Fender, which uses a standard cost system, manufactured 20,000 boat fenders during 2018. The 2018 revenue and cost information for McCarthy follows:
Sales Revenue \( 1,300,000
Cost of Goods Sold (at standard) 196,800
Direct materials cost variance 7,150 F
Direct materials efficiency variance 5,950 U
Direct labor cost variance 400 U
Direct labor efficiency variance 530 F
Variable overhead cost variance 650 U
Variable overhead efficiency variance 360 F
Fixed overhead cost variance 2,350 U
Fixed overhead volume variance 4,410 U
Assume each fender produced was sold for the standard price of \)65, and total selling and administrative costs were $250,000. Prepare a standard cost income statement for 2018 for McCarthy Fender
