Durnstein Schnapps produces three types of schnapps from locally grown Austrian pears, plums, and cherries. Schnapps is a clear, colorless beverage distilled from fermented fruit that normally contains about 40 percent alcohol. The pear and plum schnapps are produced using an identical process whereby the pears and plums are fermented and then distilled. The cherry schnapps employs a similar production process but requires more direct labor to produce the unique and highly prized Durnstein Cherry Schnapps. Each variety of schnapps (pears, plums, and cherries) is produced in batches of 500 liters and then bottled.
Durnstein Schnapps uses an absorption costing system to assign overhead to its three products for inventory costing. A single, predetermined, plant-wide overhead rate is computed using a flexible manufacturing overhead budget. Variable manufacturing overhead is budgeted to be ‚¬16.00 per direct labor hour and fixed manufacturing overhead is budgeted to be ‚¬ 845,000 for the year. The following table summarizes budgeted and operating data for the last fiscal year.

Durnstein Schnaps incurred actual manufacturing overhead last year of ‚¬ 1,250,500.
