    Hi Jenny<BR>Don't know if you're still up - but hopefully this will help......<BR>The supervisors can supervise production of 10,000 drums each and the budgeted production was 80,000 so 8 supervisors for each lot of 10, you then divide the budgeted costs of £160,000 by 8 to give you the wage for each supervisor - £20. The actual production is 12,500 which has to be rounded up to 13,000 again divided by 10 = 13 supervisors x £20 giving the supervisors wages of £260 for budgeted production against £258 actual.<BR>Good Luck<BR><BR>
