The company incurred a total of $9,450 in variable overhead costs. According to the company's standards, 0.03 direct labor-hours are required to fulfill an order for one item and the variable overhead rate is $275 per direct labor-hour. Required: 1. What is the standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to ship 110,000 items to customers? 2. What is the standard variable overhead cost allowed (SH SR) to ship 110,000 items to customers? 3. What is the variable overhead spending variance? 4. What is the variable overhead rate variance and the variable overhead efficiency variance? (For requirements 3 and 4 , indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, " U " for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations.) Erie Company manufactures a mobile fitness device called the Jogging Mate.

Compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for the month. (For requirements 3 through 5 , indicate the effect of each variance by selecting " F " for favorable, " U " for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations.)
