How much would Yaeger cost?  I don't think I'll buy new material at this point of time ..but if I don't get this BEC done in my first attempt, I'll look into some other material..Not too much of a +ve attitude on my part I guess...LOL

I bought Yeager BEC 2009 off E-Bay (which I'm going to load it back onto E-Bay and resell it) for a 112.00.  And the guy shipped his Wiley book with it also, which had great notes in it.  Best money I've ever spent on this whole journey.

I only used modules/lectures 41 through 45.  It made so much more sense after listening to Cindy teach it - now I know what all the Yeager people are talking about when they say Cindy is the best.

I didn't bother to listen to Becker's IT lectures.  After I printed off all the corrections to his lecture off the Becker's web site, I thought "Why bother?"  I just read the Becker book, but pretty much focused on Wiley for that section.  There was so much IT corrections, addendums, dictionary, etc that I started reading other people's posts and found that all of them felt the extra Becker IT materials did nothing for them on thier tests.

using yaeger logic cannot help me this this

can someone expand

Baby Frames, Inc., evaluates manufacturing overhead by using variance analysis. The following information applies to the month of May:

Actual Budgeted

Number of frames manufactured 19,000 20,000

Variable overhead costs $ 4,100 $2 per direct labor hour

Fixed overhead costs $ 22,000 $20,000; $1 per unit

Direct labor hours 2,100 hours 0.1 hour per frame

What is the production volume variance?

ans 1000 unfavorable

20000-19000 = 1000 ?

Look at my post above.  Volume variance is a FC variance. 

 

Actual                                    Budgeted                       OH                      

OH                                                                                      Applied

 \ -------------------------------/     \-------------------------/

    spending/budget variance           volume variance

22,000                              20,000                                       19,000

so spending variance is 2,000 U           ;           ;           ;        

 

Volume variance is:

Actual quantity produced * Budgeted FC OH dollars

                                                  Activity (DLHRS/Machine HRS/etc)

Actual quantity produced: 19,000 * 1.00 (Bud FCOH/activity given to you) = 19,000  go back and plug 19,000 in for OH applied.  Now calculate Volume variance: 20,000 - 19,000 = 1,000
