Brahma manufactures western hats. The company prepares flexible budgets and uses a standard cost system to control manufacturing costs. The following standard unit cost of a hat is based on the static budget volume of 14,000 hats per month:

Direct materials (3.0 m2 × $6.00 per m2)$18.00
Direct labour (2 hours × $12 per hour) 24.00
Manufacturing overhead:
Variable (2 hours × $1.25 per hour)$2.50
Fixed (2 hours × $2.75 per hour) 5.50 8.00
Total cost per hat. $50.00

Data for January of the current year include the following:
a. Actual production was 13,600 hats.
b. Actual direct materials purchased and used was 2.70 m2 per hat at an actual cost of $6.30 per
m2.
c. Actual direct labour usage of 27,500 hours cost $385,000.
d. Total actual overhead cost was $110,500.
