Budgeted number of machine-hours planned can be calculated by multiplying the
number
of units planned (budgeted) by the number of machine-hours allocated per
unit:
888 units 2 machine-hours per unit = 1,776 machine-hours.
2.
Budgeted fixed MOH costs per machine-hour can be computed by dividing the
flexible
budget amount for fixed MOH (which is the same as the static budget) by the
number of
machine-hours planned (calculated in (a.)):
$348,096 1,776 machine-hours = $196.00 per machine-hour
3.
Budgeted variable MOH costs per machine-hour are calculated as budgeted variable
MOH costs divided by the budgeted number of machine-hours planned:
$71,040 1,776 machine-hours = $40.00 per machine-hour.

The actual number of machine-hours used per output unit is the actual number
of machine hours used (given) divided by the actual number of units manufactured:
1,824 machine-hours 960 units = 1.9 machine-hours used per output unit.

The sales-volume variance represents the difference between the static-budget operating
income and the flexible-budget operating income:

Equivalently, the sales-volume variance captures the fact that when Dawn sells 600 units
instead of the budgeted 1,000, only the revenue and the variable costs are affected. Fixed
costs remain unchanged. Therefore, the shortfall in profit is equal to the budgeted
contribution margin per unit times the shortfall in output relative to budget.

The $3,600 U production-volume variance explains the difference between operating income
based on the budgeted profit per unit and the flexible-budget operating income:

Since the sales-volume variance represents the difference between the static- and flexiblebudget operating incomes, the difference between the sales-volume and production-volume
variances, which is referred to as the operating-income volume variance is:
Operating-income volume variance
= Sales-volume variance Production-volume variance
= Static-budget operating income Operating income based on budgeted profit per unit
= $21,000 U $12,600 U = $8,400 U.
The operating-income volume variance explains the difference between the staticbudget operating income and the budgeted operating income for the units actually sold. The
static-budget operating income is $21,000 and the budgeted operating income for 600 units
would have been $12,600 ($21 operating income per unit 600 units). The difference,
$8,400 U, is the operating-income volume variance, i.e., the 400 unit drop in actual volume
relative to budgeted volume would have caused an expected drop of $8,400 in operating
income, at the budgeted operating income of $21 per unit. The operating-income volume
variance assumes that $50,000 in fixed cost ($9 per unit 400 units) would be saved if
production and sales volumes decreased by 400 units.
