Casco Co. planned to produce and sell 40,000 units. At that volume level, variable costs are determined to be $320,000 and fixed costs are $30,000. The planned selling price is $10 per unit. Casco actually produced and sold 42,000 units. Using a contribution margin format: (a) Prepare a fixed budget income statement for the planned level of sales and production. (b) Prepare a flexible budget income statement for the actual level of sales and production.

If Falcon Company's actual overhead incurred during a period was $32,700 and the company reported a favorable overhead controllable variance of $1,200 and an unfavorable overhead volume variance of $900, how much standard overhead cost was assigned to the products produced during the period?

Cost variances are ignored under management by exception.

The amounts in a flexible budget are based on one expected level of sales or production.

Landlubber Company established a standard direct materials cost of 1.5 gallons at $2 per gallon for one unit of its product. During the past month, actual production was 6,500 units. The material quantity variance was $700 favorable and the material price variance was $470 unfavorable. The entry to charge Goods in Process Inventory for the standard material costs during the month and to record the direct material variances in the accounts would include:

Standard costs provide a basis for assessing the reasonableness of actual costs incurred for producing a product or service.

A key difference in the analysis of quantity variances for direct cost categories and the analysis of the efficiency variance for variable overhead is:

A _______________________ contains relevant information that compares actual results to planned activities.

Bradford Company budgeted 4,000 pounds of material costing $5.00 per pound to produce 2,000 units. The company actually used 4,500 pounds that cost $5.10 per pound to produce 2,000 units. What is the direct materials price variance?

Sales variance analysis is useful for:

When recording variances in a standard cost system:

The difference between actual and standard cost caused by the difference between the actual quantity and the standard quantity is called the:
