60. Pohl Corporation uses a standard cost system in which manufacturing overhead is
applied on the basis of standard machine-hours. For June, the company's manufacturing
overhead flexible budget showed the following total budgeted costs at a denominator activity
level of 20,000 machine-hours:
Variable overhead costs (total):
Maintenance $16,000
Utilities $10,000
Fixed overhead costs (total):
Supervision $20,500
Depreciation $9,500
During June, 17,000 machine-hours were used to complete 13,000 units of product, and the
following actual total overhead costs were incurred:
Variable overhead costs (total):
Maintenance $14,620
Utilities $10,710
Fixed overhead costs (total):
Supervision $19,320
Depreciation $9,500
At standard, each unit of finished product requires 1.4 hours of machine time.
