Explanation / Answer

1. Total material variance = (standard cost-actual cost)

= (280*36-7600)

Total material variance = 2480 Favourable

2. Material price variancce = (standard price-actual price)actual quantity

= (3.6*2000-7600)

Material price variance = 400 Unfavourable

3. Material quantity variance = (standard quantity-actual quantity)standard price

= (280*10-2000)3.6

Material quantity variance = 2880 Favourable

4. Total labour variance = (standard cost-actual cost)

= (280*50-13959)

Total labour variance = 41 Favourable

5. Labour rate variance = (standard rate-actual rate)actual hours

= (10*1410-13959)

Labour rate variance = 141 Favourable

6 Labour efficiency variance = (standard hours-actual hours)standard rate

= (280*5-1410)10

Labour efficiency variance = 100 Unfavourable
