CHAPTER 23 Performance Evaluation Using Variances from Standard Costs
Ex. 23–19
In determining the volume variance, the productive capacity overemployed (2,000
hours) should be multiplied by the standard fixed factory overhead rate of $3.80
($7.30 – $3.50) to yield a favorable variance of $7,600. The variance analysis
provided by the chief cost accountant incorrectly multiplied the 2,000 hours by
the total factory overhead rate of $7.30 per hour and reported it as unfavorable.

The budgeted variable factory overhead costs are determined by multiplying
22,000 hours by the variable factory overhead cost rate for each variable cost
category. These rates are determined by dividing each budgeted amount
(estimated at the beginning of the month) by the planned (budgeted) volume
of 20,000 hours. Thus, for example:

Average computer response X A measure of the speed of the
time to customer “clicks” ordering process. If the speed is
too slow, we may lose customers.
Maintenance dollars divided X A driver of the ordering system’s
by hardware investment reliability and downtime. The
maintenance dollars should be
divided by the amount of hardware
in order to facilitate comparison
across time.
Number of orders per X This measure is related to the
warehouse employee capacity of the warehouse relative
to the demands placed upon it.
This relationship will impact the
delivery cycle time.
Number of page faults or X The page errors will negatively
