World Company expects to operate at 70% of its productive capacity of 38,000 units per month. At this planned level, the company expects to use 16,625 standard hours of direct labor. Overhead is allocated to products using a predetermined standard rate of 0.625 direct labor hour per unit. At the 70% capacity level, the total budgeted cost includes $66,500 fixed overhead cost and $182,875 variable overhead cost. In the current month, the company incurred $421,625 actual overhead and 16,405 actual labor hours while producing 44,600 units. Required:
a. Compute the predetermined standard overhead rate for total overhead.
b. Compute the total overhead variance.

a. Predetermined Overhead Rate

Rate   = Overhead cost / standard hours of direct labor

Variable Overhead Costs Rate = 182875 / 16625 = 11  

Fixed Overhead Costs Rate= 66500 / 16625  = 4

Total Overhead Costs Rate = Variable Overhead Costs  + Fixed Overhead Costs

= 11 + 4

= 15

b. Total overhead variance

Overhead costs applied= Overhead * Standard Direct Labor Hours

When Standard Direct Labor Hours= (16625 / 38000 * 70%) * 44600

= (16625 / 26600) * 44600.

= 0.625 * 44600

= 27875 Hours.

i. Variable Overhead Costs = 11 * 27875 = 306625

ii. Fixed Overhead Costs = 4 * 27875 = 111500

iii. Total Overhead Costs = 15 * 27875 = 418125

The company incurred $421,625 actual overhead which is the Actual overhead.

Hence, Total overhead variance= Total Overhead - Costs Actual overhead

= $418,125 - $421,625

= -3500 (Unfavorable)

(i know i'm late but the answer's "things about yourself" because you want to list things you're capable of, why you want to open up the business, the amount of money you're putting into it,etc.) i'm guessing you take online school small business, the answers to the quizzes are all over quizlet. just look up your question and type quizlet after it and it'll pop up.
