Overhead Variances At the beginning of the year, Lopez Company had the following standard cost sheet for one of its chemical products: Direct materials (4 lbs. @ $2.80) $11.20 Direct labor (2 hrs. @ $18.00) FOH (2 hrs. @ $5.20) VOH (2 hrs. @ $0.70) Standard cost per unit 36.00 10.40 1.40 $59.00 Lopez computes its overhead rates using practical volume, which is 80,000 units. The actual results for the year are as follows: (a) Units produced: 79,600; (b) Direct labor: 158,900 hours at $18.10; (c) FOH: $831,000; and (d) VOH: $112,400. Required: 1. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. Enter amounts as positive numbers and select Favorable or Unfavorable. Spending variance $ Efficiency variance $ 2. Compute the fixed overhead spending and volume variances. Enter amounts as positive numbers and select Favorable or Unfavorable.
