Explanation / Answer
Answer 1.
Direct Materials Price Variance = Actual Quantity * (Actual Rate - Standard Rate)
-$3,770 = 7,540 * (Actual Rate - $13)
-0.50 = Actual Rate - $13
Actual Rate = $12.50
Answer 2.
Direct Material Quantity Variance = Standard Rate * (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity)
$1,960 = $14.00 * (6,600 - Standard Quantity)
140 = 6,600 - Standard Quantity
Standard Quantity = 6,460 gallon
Standard Quantity = 2 gallon * Number of units
6,460 = 2 * Number of units
Number of units = 3,230
Answer 3.
Budgeted Sales Volume = 4,050
Budgeted Variable Overhead = $20,250
Variable Overhead per unit = Budgeted Variable Overhead / Budgeted Sales Volume
Variable Overhead per unit = $20,250 / 4,050
Variable Overhead per unit = $5.00
Actual Sales Volume = 4,360
Flexible Budget:
Variable Overhead Cost = Variable Overhead per unit * Actual Sales Volume
Variable Overhead Cost = $5.00 * 4,360
Variable Overhead Cost = $21,800
Answer 4.
Budgeted Sales Volume = 4,000
Budgeted Direct Labor = $64,000
Direct Labor per unit = Budgeted Direct Labor / Budgeted Sales Volume
Direct Labor per unit = $64,000 / 4,000
Direct Labor per unit = $16.00
Actual Sales Volume = 4,300
Flexible Budget:
Direct Labor Cost = Direct Labor per unit * Actual Sales Volume
Direct Labor Cost = $16.00 * 4,300
Direct Labor Cost = $68,800
