QUESTION 5

1. Jackson Industries has collected the following data for one of its products:

   Direct Materials Standard (6 pounds per unit @ 55 cents per pound)

   Actual Direct Materials Purchased was 38,000 pounds

   Actual Direct Materials Used was 35,000 pounds

   Actual Price paid per pound was 60 cents

   How much is the Direct Materials Price Variance?

   	a.	$1,900 (Unfavorable)
   	b.	$1,750 (Favorable)
   	c.	$1,900 (Favorable)
   	d.	$1,750 (Unfavorable)

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Option (A)is correct.

direct materials utilisation for a period= produced goods- ending inventory + closing inventory

2. january sales revenue= 5000*$3= $15,000 and

february sales= 9000*$3= $27,000

Option B is correct (January $15,000; February $27,000)

3. Option D is correct i.e 26,000 units

Beginning inventory	15,000 Units
Expected Sales	23,000 Units
Desired ending inventory	18,000 units
Units to be produced = Desired ending inventory – Beginning inventory + Expected Sales
= 18,000 – 15,000 + 23,000 = 26,000 units

4. Option C is correct i.e 28,600 jump ropes

Beginning inventory	4,400 jump ropes
Expected Sales (1st qtr)	25,000 jump ropes
Desired ending inventory	8,000 jump ropes
(10% of 2nd qtrs.exp sales) – 80,000 * (10/100)
Units to be produced (During the First Qtr)= Desired ending inventory – Beginning inventory + Expected Sales
= 8000 – 4400 + 25000 = 28,600 jump ropes

5.Option A is correct i.e $ 1,900 unfavorable.

Direct materials price variance = ( Standard price per unit - Actual price per unit) x Actual quantity purchased

= $ ( 0.55 - 0.60) x 38,000 pounds =

= $ 1,900 unfavorable.
