kennel for one day is counted as one tenant-day. During September, the kennel
budgeted for 2,000 tenant-days, but its actual level of activity was 2,010 tenant-days.

5) Betterton Corporation uses an activity based costing system to assign overhead costs
to products. In the first stage, two overhead costs-equipment depreciation and
supervisory expense-are allocated to three activity cost pools-Machining, Order Filling,
and Other-based on resource consumption. Data to perform these allocations appear
below:
In the second stage, Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours
(MHs) and Order Filling costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The
costs in the Other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data for the
company's two products follow:
What is the overhead cost assigned to Product A8 under activity-based costing?
A.$3,720
B.$3,975
C.$26,000
D.$7,695
6) The total cash flow net of income taxes in year 3 is:

9,800 ounces of the constrained resource are available. Data concerning the company's
two products, B08 and O05, follow:
Product B08 requires 6 ounces of the constrained resource; product O05 requires 4
ounces.
Required:

b. Compute the materials price variance.
c. Compute the labor efficiency variance.
d. Compute the labor rate variance.
e. Compute the variable overhead efficiency variance.
