Overhead is applied at $6.00 per direct labor hour based on estimated 5,000 total hours.

24

Variances from standard for factory overhead result from:

1. Actual variable factory overhead cost greater or less than budgeted variable factory overhead for actual production.

2. Actual production at a level above or below 100% of normal capacity.

Western Rider Inc. produced 5,000 pairs of XL jeans in June. Each pair requires

0.80 standard labor hours for production. The firm operated at 80% of capacity.
