Hals Heating produces furnaces for commercial buildings The
Hal’s Heating produces furnaces for commercial buildings. The company’s master budget shows the following standards information.
Expected production for January:
300 furnaces
Direct materials
3 heating elements at $40 per element
Direct labor
35 hours per furnace at $18 per hour
Variable manufacturing overhead
35 direct labor hours per furnace at $15 per hour
Calculate the standard cost per unit for direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead.
Assume Hal’s Heating produced 320 furnaces during January. Prepare a flexible budget for direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead.
| Expected production for January: | 300 furnaces |
| Direct materials | 3 heating elements at $40 per element |
| Direct labor | 35 hours per furnace at $18 per hour |
| Variable manufacturing overhead | 35 direct labor hours per furnace at $15 per hour |
Solution
standard cost per unit for direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead
Hal’s Heating produced 320 furnaces during January (flexible budget
| Standard cost per unit | |
| Direct materials (3*40) | 120 |
| Direct labor (35*18) | 630 |
| Variable manufacturing overhead (35*15) | 525 |
| Standard variable production per unit | 1275 |
