nts Requirements - 1. Compute the cost and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct labor. 2. Journalize the purchase and usage of direct materials and the assignment of direct labor, including the related variances. 3. For manufacturing overhead, compute the variable overhead cost and efficiency variances and the fixed overhead cost and volume variances. 4. Journalize the actual manufacturing overhead and the allocated manufacturing overhead. Journalize the movement of all production costs from Work-in-Process Inventory. Journalize the adjusting of the Manufacturing Overhead account. 5. Drummond Company intentionally hired more highly skilled workers during July. How did this decision affect the cost variances? Overall, was the decision wise? Print Done Actual Cost and Production Information a. There were no beginning or ending inventory balances. All expenditures were on account. b.

Compute the cost and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct labor. (Abbreviations used: AC = actual cost; AQ = actual quantity; FOH = fixed overhead; SC = standard cost; SQA = standard quantity allowed.) Begin with the cost variances. Select the required formulas, compute the cost variances for direct materials and direct labor. (Label the variance as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U), in the input field after the amount you enter.) Direct materials cost variance = Direct labor cost variance = Formula Variance
