Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Standard price of direct material = $7

Actual price of material = $7.10

Standard quantity of material = 145000*0.35 = 50750 Kg

Actual quanity of material purchase = 52000

Actual quantity of material consumed = 51600

Direct material price variance = (SP - AP) * AQ Purchased = ($7 - $7.10) * 52000 = $5,200 U

Direct material quantity variance = (SQ - AQ) * SP = (50750 - 51600) * $7 = $5,950 U

Standard hours of labor for actual production = 145000 * 0.05 = 7250 hours

Actual labor hours = 7520

Standard rate of labor = $15 per hour

Actual rate of labor = $14.75 per hour

Labor rate variance = (SR - AR) * AH = ($15 - $14.75) * 7520 = $1,880 F

Labor efficiency variance = (SH - AH) * SR = (7250 - 7520) * $15 = $4,050 U

Budgeted overhead for actual production = $142,000 + (145000*$0.8) = $258,000

Actual overhead incurred = $143,500 + $111,250 = $254,750

Overhead applied = 145000 * $1.80 = $261,000

Overhead controllable variance = Budgeted overhead - Actual overhead = $258,000 - $254,750 = $3,250 F

Overhead volume variance = Overhead applied - Budgeted overhead = $261,000 - $258,000 = $3,000 F
