Required:
Given the information above, compute the following variances. Also indicate if the variances are favorable or unfavorable.
Material Price Variance = (Actual Price - Standard Price) x
Actual Quantity
= ($1.60 - $1.50) x 840 = $84 (U)
Actual Quantity = 400 x 2.1 = 840
Material Quantity Variance = (Actual Quantity - Standard
Quantity) x Standard Price
= (840 - 800) x $1.50 = $60 (U)
Standard Quantity = 400 x 2 = 800
Direct Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate) x
actual hours
= ($6.50 - $6) x 560 = $380 (U)
Actual hours = 400 x 1.4 = 560 hours
Direct labor efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard
hours) x Standard rate
= (600 - 560) x $6 = $240 (F)
Standard hours = 1.5 x 400 = 600
Variable overhead spending variance = (Actual rate - Standard
rate) x actual hours
= ($3.10 - $3.40) x 560 = $168 (F)
Actual hours = 400 x 1.4 = 560 hours
Direct labor efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard
hours) x Standard rate
= (600 - 560) x $3.40 = $136 (F)
