Answer:
a) Sales volume variance = $1496000 unfavorable
flexible-budget variance = $192000 favorable
b) For direct materials
Price variance = `$135000 unfavorable
efficiency variances = $527920 favorable
For direct manufacturing labor
Price variance = `$36600 unfavorable
efficiency variances = $914815 favorable
Explanation:
a) Sales volume variance = (Actual units sold - Budgeted units sold) x Budgeted price per unit = (4800 - 7000) × $680 = $1496000 unfavorable
flexible-budget variance = (Actual price - Budgeted price) x Actual units sold= ($720 - $680) × 4800 = $192000 favorable
b) For direct materials
Price variance = (Actual cost - standard cost) x Actual quantity of units purchased = ($5.95/ pound - $8/pound) × 66000 pound= `$135000 unfavorable
efficiency variances = (Actual unit - Standard unit) x Standard cost per unit = (66000 pound - 10 pound) × $8 per pound= $527920 favorable
For direct manufacturing labor
Price variance = (Actual cost - standard cost) x Actual hours = ($48/hour - $50/hour) × 18300 hours = `$36600 unfavorable
efficiency variances = (Actual hours - Standard hours) x Standard cost per hour= (18300 hour - 3.7 hour) × $50/hour = $914815 favorable
In this exercise we have to use business knowledge to calculate the variance of each of the items requested in the given text, in this way we find that:
1) Sales volume variance, we can say that is unfavorable amd flexible-budget variance we can say that is favorable.
2) Price variance we can say that is unfavorable and efficiency variances is favorable. For direct manufacturing labor we can say that price variance is unfavorable and efficiency variances is favorable.
So calculating the variance for the items, we find that:
1)To calculate the variance in sales volume we will use the formula:
[tex](Actual \ units \ sold - Budgeted \ units \ sold) * (Budgeted \ price \ per\ unit )[/tex]
Replacing the values informed in the text, we find that:
[tex]= (4800 - 7000) * (680) = \$1.496.000[/tex]
So the variance in sales volume is equal to [tex]\$1.496.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is unfavorable.
To calculate the variance in flexible-budget we will use the formula:
[tex](Actual \ price - Budgeted \ price) * (Actual \ units \ sold)[/tex]
Replacing the values informed in the text, we find that:
[tex]= ($720 - $680) * 4800 = \$192000[/tex]
So the variance in flexible-budget is equal to [tex]\$192.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is favorable.
b) To calculate the variance in price variance we will use the formula:
[tex](Actual\ cost - standard\ cost) * (Actual\ quantity\ of\ units\ purchased)[/tex]
Replacing the values informed in the text, we find that:
[tex]= ($5.95 - $8) * (66000)= \$135.000[/tex]
So the variance in price variance is equal to [tex]\$135.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is unfavorable.
To calculate the variance in efficiency variances we will use the formula:
[tex](Actual \ unit - Standard \ unit) * Standard \ cost\ per\ unit[/tex]
Replacing the values informed in the text, we find that:
[tex](66000 - 10 ) * $8 = \$527.920[/tex]
So the variance in efficiency variances is equal to [tex]\$527.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is favorable.
To calculate the variance in price variance we will use the formula:
[tex](Actual \ cost - standard \ cost) * Actual\ hours[/tex]
Replacing the values informed in the text, we find that:
[tex]($48 - $50) * 18300 = \$36.600[/tex]
So the variance in price variance is equal to [tex]\$36.600[/tex] and we can also say that it is unfavorable.
To calculate the variance in efficiency variances we will use the formula:
[tex](Actual \ hours - Standard \hours) * Standard \ cost \ per \ hour[/tex]
Replacing the values informed in the text, we find that:
[tex](18300 - 3.7 ) * $50 = $914.815[/tex]
So the variance in efficiency variances is equal to [tex]\$914.815[/tex] and we can also say that it is favorable.
