1 | Direct Material Price Variance | |||
Direct Material Price variance = ( Actual Price - Standard Price ) * Actual Quantity | ||||
Silver | ||||
Standard Price = $ 31 per oz | ||||
Actual Price = ( $ 17,344 / 542 ounces ) = $ 32 | ||||
Actual Quantity = 542 ounces | ||||
Direct Material Price Variance ( silver ) = ( $ 32 - $ 31 ) * 542 ounces | ||||
= $ 542 Unfavorable | ||||
Crystal | ||||
Standard Price = $ 0.50 | ||||
Actual Price = ( $ 4,689.60 / 9,770 crystals ) = $ 0.48 | ||||
Actual Quantity = 9,770 crystals | ||||
Direct Material Price Variance ( Crystal ) = ( $ 0.48 - $ 0.50 ) * 9,770 crystals | ||||
= $ 195.4 Favorable | ||||
Direct Material Quantity Variance | ||||
Direct Material Quantity variance = ( Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity ) * Standard Price | ||||
Silver | ||||
Standard Price = $ 31 per oz | ||||
Actual Quantity = 542 ounces | ||||
Standard Quantity = 0.35 oz * 1,620 charms = 567 ounces | ||||
Direct Material Quantity Variance ( silver ) = ( 542 ounces - 567 ounces ) * $ 31 | ||||
Crystal | ||||
Standard Price = $ 0.50 | ||||
Actual Quantity = 9,770 crystals | ||||
Standard Quantity = 6 crystals * 1,620 charms = 9,720 crystals | ||||
Direct Material Quantity Variance ( Crystals ) = ( 9,770 crystals - 9,720 crystals ) * $ 0.50 | ||||
2 | Direct Labor Rate Variance | |||
Direct Labor rate variance = ( Actual rate - Standard rate ) * Actual Hours | ||||
Standard Rate = $ 20 per hour | ||||
Actual Rate = ( $ 66,105 / 3,390 Hours ) = $ 19.50 | ||||
Actual Hours = 3,390 hours | ||||
Direct Labor rate variance = ( $ 19.50 - $ 20 ) * 3,390 hours | ||||
= $ 1,695 Favorable | ||||
Direct Labor Efficience Variance | ||||
Direct Labor Efficiency Variance = ( Actual Hours - Standard Hours ) * Standard Rate | ||||
Standard Rate = $ 20 per hour | ||||
Actual Hours = 3,390 hours | ||||
Standard Hours = ( 2 hours * 1,620 charms ) = 3,240 hours | ||||
Direct Labor Efficiency Variance = ( 3,390 hours - 3,240 hours ) * $ 20 | ||||
= $ 3,000 Unfavorable |
