The Accustart Company uses a standard costing system

Management

The Accustart Company uses a standard costing system. During 2021, the company incurred actual overhead of $570,000. The standard rate for applying overhead is $4.14 per unit, and 132,900 units were produced in 2021. One-third of the total overhead variance is attributed to the volume variance, and the remainder is attributed to the controllable overhead variance. Prepare the journal entries to record overhead incurred (you should credit "various accounts") and the overhead variances. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually.)
