Question

Dinkel Manufacturing Corporation accumulates the following data relative to jobs started and finished during the month of June 2012.


Cost and Production Data Actual Standard
Raw materials unit cost $2.25 $2.00
Raw materials units used 10,600 10,000
Direct labor payroll $122,400 $120,000
Direct labor hours worked 14,400 15,000
Manufacturing overhead incurred $184,500
Manufacturing overhead applied $189,000
Machine hours expected to be used at normal capacity 42,500
Budgeted fixed overhead for June $51,000
Variable overhead rate per hour $3.00
Fixed overhead rate per hour $1.20


Overhead is applied on the basis of standard machine hours. Three hours of machine time are required for each direct labor hour. The jobs were sold for $400,000. Selling and administrative expenses were $40,000. Assume that the amount of raw materials purchased equaled the amount used.





A)Compute all of the variances for (1) direct materials and (2) direct labor.
Total materials variance $______ UnfavorableFavorable
Materials price variance $_______ FavorableUnfavorable
Materials quantity variance $________ FavorableUnfavorable
Total labor variance $_______ UnfavorableFavorable
Labor price variance $______ UnfavorableFavorable
Labor quantity variance $______ FavorableUnfavorable

B)Compute the total overhead Variance???

Explanation / Answer

Total materials variance $______ UnfavorableFavorable Total variance = price variance + quantity variance = 3850 unfavorable Materials price variance $_______ FavorableUnfavorable Price variance = AQ(AP-SP) = 10,600(2.25 – 2) = 2650 unfavorable Materials quantity variance $________ FavorableUnfavorable Quantity variance = SP(AQ-SQ) = 2.00(10,600 – 10,000) = 1200 unfavorable Total labor variance $_______ UnfavorableFavorable Total variance = price variance + quantity variance = 7200 + -4800 = 2400 unfavorable Labor price variance $______ UnfavorableFavorable Price variance = AH(AR-SR) = 14,400(122,400/14,400 – 120,000/15,000) = 14,400*(8.50 – 8) = 7200 unfavorable Labor quantity variance $______ FavorableUnfavorable Quantity variance = SR(AH-SH) = 120,000/15,000(14,400 – 15,000) = 8*(-600) = -4800 which is 4800 favorable
