Question

apter HomeworkI Check my work 2 Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below: Standard Quantity or Standard Price Standard 10 points Hours or Rate Cost Direct materials Direct labor 6.40 pounds 2.40 per pound 15.36 0.25 hours 11.50 per hour $ 2.88 eBook Print References During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded: a. 17,500.00 pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.20 per pound. b. All of the material purchased was used to produce 2,500 units of Zoom. C. 475 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $5,938. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month. (For all requirements, Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values. Round your intermediate calculations to the nearest whole dollar.) 1. Materials price variance Materials quantity variance 2. Labor rate variance Labor efficiency variance

Answer 1

1	Materials price variance	3500	F	=17500*(2.2-2.4)
	Materials quantity variance	3600	U	=2.4*(17500-2500*6.4)
2	Labor rate variance	476 or 475	U	=5938-(475*11.5)
	Labor efficiency variance	1725	F	=11.5*(475-2500*0.25)
