Sprint 4:05 PM ezto.mheducation.com 2.00 points Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below: Quantity or Standard Standard Price or Rate Cost Direct materials 6.4 pounds 3.00 per pound $19.20 4.40 Direct labor 0.4 hours $11.00 per hour During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded Twelve thousand four hundred pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.90 per pound b. The company produced only 1,240 units, using 11,160 pounds of material. (The rest of the material purchased remained in raw materials inventory.) Five hundred and ninety six hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $7,152. Required Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Do not round intermediate calculations.) Direct materials price variance Direct materials quantty variance

Explanation / Answer

Direct material price variance = (3-2.90)*12400 = 1240 F

Direct material quantity variance = (1240*6.4-11160)*3 = 9672 U

Direct labour rate variance = (11*596-7152) = 596 U

Direct labour efficiency variance = (1240*0.40-596)*11 = 1100 U
