Exhibit 10-2
Benny's Bakery produces bagels for resale at local grocery stores. The master budget indicates that the company expects
to use 2.5 pounds of direct materials for each unit produced at a cost of $10.00 per pound (one unit = one batch of
bagels). Each unit produced will require 0.30 direct labor hours at a cost of $24.00 per hour. Variable manufacturing
overhead is applied based on direct labor hours at a rate of $4.80 per hour. Last year's sales were expected to total
40,000 units. Benny just received last year's actual results showing sales of 35,000 units.
