Use the following information for Exercises 9-63 and 9-64: Palladium Inc. produces a variety of household cleaning products. Palladiums controller has developed standard costs for the following four overhead items: Next year, Palladium expects production to require 90,000 direct labor hours. Exercise 9-63 Flexible Budget for Various Levels of Activity Refer to the information for Palladium Inc. above. Required: 1. Prepare an overhead budget for the expected level of direct labor hours for the coming year. 2.

Calculating amount of factory overhead applied to work in process The overhead application rate for a company is 2.50 per unit, made up of 1.00 for fixed overhead and 1.50 for variable overhead. Normal capacity is 10,000 units. In one month, there was an unfavorable flexible budget variance of 200. Actual overhead for the month was 27,000. What was the amount of the budgeted overhead for the actual level of production?
