Exercise 16-36 (Algo) Variable Cost Variances (LO 16-5) Paynesville Corporation manufactures and sells a preservative used in food and drug manufacturing. The company carries no inventories. The master budget calls for the company to manufacture and sell 122,000 liters at a budgeted price of $240 per liter this year. The standard direct cost sheet for one liter of the preservative follows. (2 pounds @ $15) (0.5 hours @ $46) Direct materials $30 Direct labor 23 Variable overhead is applied based on direct labor hours. The variable overhead rate is $130 per direct-labor hour. The fixed overhead rate (at the master budget level of activity) is $65 per unit. All non-manufacturing costs are fixed and are budgeted at $2.3 million for the coming year. At the end of the year, the costs analyst reported that the sales activity variance for the year was $732,000 unfavorable. The following is the actual income statement (in thousands of dollars) for the year. Sales revenue $28,138 Less variable…
