Special order lamps are manufactured in division S. Because of the precise nature of the process a
standard cost system has been developed. The following standards are used for the special orders:
		Standards
	Lamp Kits				$16.000000	per lamp
	Direct Labor				2.400000	per lamp (4 lamps/hr.)
	Variable Overhead				0.250000	per lamp (4 lamps/hr.)
**	Fixed Overhead				10.000000	per lamp
	Total				$28.650000
	** Fixed overhead is based on expected production of 4,008 customized lamps each month.
To keep records of the actual cost of a job, a Job Order Cost System has been developed. Entries
are made to the Job Order System at actual cost (overhead is applied based on actual labor hours)
while entries are made to the accounting system at standard. Variance analysis is used to analyze the
differences.
