Use the following information for the next 2 questions.

Allen, Inc. has budgeted $120,000 in variable overhead and $72,000 in fixed overhead for the current month.  8,000 custom units were expected to be produced using 60,000 machine hours.  During the month, Allen actually used 68,096 machine hours and produced 8,960 units. Actual overhead costs were: $132,000 variable and $73,600 fixed.

  7. $300 increase
  8. $100 increase
  9. $300 decrease
  10. $100 decrease
  11. When overhead is underapplied
