(On the information given, there is a typo on "Variable overhead" it should be Variable Overhead (0.15 hr @ $1.70)

Direct Materials, Direct Labor, and Overhead Variances, Journal Entries Rand Company produces dry fertilizer. At the beginning of the year, Rand had the following standard cost sheet: Direct materials (8 lbs. @ $1.25) $10.00 Direct labor (0.15 hr. @ $18.00) 2.70 Fixed overhead (0.20 hr. @ $3.00) 0.60 Variable overhead (0.20 hr. @ $1.70) 0.34 Standard cost per unit $13.64 Overhead rates are computed using practical volume, which is 49,000 units. The actual results for the year are as follows: a. Units produced: 53,000 b. Direct materials purchased: 408,000 pounds at $1.32 per pound c. Direct materials used: 406,900 pounds d. Direct labor: 10,500 hours at $17.95 per hour e. Fixed overhead: $36,570 f. Variable overhead: $18,000 Required: 1.

Prepare journal entries for the closing out of variances to Cost of Goods Sold. Post amounts from highest to lowest. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank. First, close direct materials and direct labor variances: Cost of Goods Sold Direct Materials Usage Variance Direct Labor Rate Variance Direct Labor Efficiency Variance Direct Materials Price Variance Feedback Second, recognize the overhead variances: Post amounts from highest to lowest. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.
