Waterways Corporation uses very stringent standard costs in evaluating its manufacturing efficiency. These standards are not “ideal” at this point, but the management is working toward that as a goal. At present, the company uses the following standards.
Materials | ||||||
Item | Per unit | Cost | ||||
Metal | 1 lb. | 63¢ per lb. | ||||
Plastic | 12 oz. | $1.00 per lb. | ||||
Rubber | 4 oz. | 88¢ per lb. | ||||
Direct labor | ||||||
Item | Per unit | Cost | ||||
Labor | 15 min. | $8.00 per hr. | ||||
Predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours = $4.75 |
The January figures for purchasing, production, and labor are:
The company purchased 225,900 pounds of raw materials in January at a cost of 78¢ a pound. |
Production used 225,900 pounds of raw materials to make 114,000 units in January. |
Direct labor spent 18 minutes on each product at a cost of $7.80 per hour. |
Overhead costs for January totaled $64,387 variable and $76,000 fixed. |
Answer the following questions about standard costs.
What is the materials price variance? (Round per unit calculations to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.25 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)
