Question

Silmon Corporation makes a product with the following standard costs:

Silmon Corporation makes a product with the following standard costs: In June the company produced 4,800 units using 27,650 grams of the direct material and 2,640 direct labor-hours. During the month the company purchased 24,700 grams of the direct material at a price of $6,80 per gram. The actual direct labor rate was $14,60 per hour and the actual variable overhead rate was $1,90 per hour. The materials price variance is computed when materials are purchased. Required: Compute the following variances for raw materials and direct labor, assuming that the price variance for materials is recognized at point of purchase:

Explanation / Answer

Answer - A Direct material quantity varaiance =

= (Actual usage in units - Standard usage in units) x Standard cost per unit

= (27650 - (5.5*4800))*7

= (27650-26400)*7

= 1250*7

= 8750 (U)

Answer B Direct Material Price Varaince =

= (Actual price - Budgeted price) x Actual quantity

= (6.80-7.00) *27650   

= 0.20*27650

= 5530 (F)

Answer -C Direct Labor Effieciency Varaince =

= (Actual hours - Standard hours) x Standard rate

= (2640-2400)*14

= 240*14

= 3360 (U)

Answer (D) Direct Labour Rate Variance =

= (Actual rate - Standard rate) x Actual hours worked

= (14.60-14.00) *2640

= 0.60*2640

= 1584 (U)
