Question

Ayala Corporation accumulates the following data relative to jobs started and finished during the month of June 2014. Overhead is applied on the basis of standard machine hours. 3.20 hours of machine time are required for each direct labor hour. The jobs were sold for 5489,000. Selling and administrative expenses were 538,800. Assume that the amount of raw materials purchased equaled the amount used. (a) &(b) Compute all of the variances for (1) direct materials and (2) direct labor. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.) Compute the total overhead variance.

Explanation / Answer

Total Material Variance = ( SP*SQ) - (AP*AQ) = (1.84*10550) - ( 2*11200) =2988(A)

Material Price Variance = (SP-AP)*AQ=(1.84-2)*11200 = 1792(A)

Materail Quantity Variance = (SP*SQ) - (SP*AQ) = (1.84*10550) - ( 1.84*11200) = 1196(A)

Where

SQ= Standard Quantity = Expected Consumption for Actual Quantity

AQ= Actual Quantity of material consumed

SP= Standard Price per unit of material

AP =Actual Price per unit of material

Total Labour Variance = (SR*SH) - (AR*AH)= (10.71* 15200) - (11.4*14900) = 7068 (A)

Labour Price Variance = ( SR*AH) - (AR*AH) =( 10.71*14900) - (11.4*14900) = 10281(A)

Labour Quantity Variance = (SR*SH) - (SR*AH)=( 10.71*15200) - (10.71*14900) = 3213(F)

Note :

Actual rate per hour (AR) = Actual direct labour cost / Actual labour hours =169860/14900=11.40

Standard rate per hour (SR)= Standard direct labour cost / Standard labour hour =162792/15200 = 10.71

Where ,

SR = Standard rate per hour

AH = Actual rate per hour

SH = Standard hour = Expected time for actual output

AH = Actual hour worked   

Total Overhead variance = Manufacturing overhead applied (SR*SH) - Manufacturing overhead incurred(AR*AH)

= ( 228608 -224988) = 3620 (F)
