A-Zone Media sells two models of e-readers. The budgeted price per unit for the wireless model is $193 and the budgeted price per unit for the wireless and cellular model is $418. The master budget called for sales of 10,100 wireless models and 2,550 wireless and cellular models during the current year. Actual results showed sales of 7,600 wireless models, with a price of $205 per unit, and 4,150 wireless and cellular models, with a price of $420 per unit. The standard variable cost per unit is $81 for a wireless model and $165 for a wireless and cellular model.
Required:
a. Compute the activity variance for these data. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, or "U" for unfavorable. If there is no effect, do not select either option.)
b. Compute the mix and quantity variance for these data. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, or "U" for unfavorable. If there is no effect, do not select either option.)
Answer
a)
Activity Variance = Budegeted Sales - Actia; Sales) x Contribution Margin per unit
(10,100 - 7600 ) x (193 - 81) $ 2,80,000 Unfavorable
( 2550 - 4150) x ( 418 - 165) $ 417,450 Favorable
-----------------
697,450 Favorable
-------------------
b)
Mix Variance:
Flexible Budget AQ x (STD Price - STD Variable cost) 7600 x (193 - 81) $ 851,200
4150 x ( 418-165) $ 1,049,950
-----------------------
$ 1,901,150
ASQ x (STD Price - STD Variable cost)
(7600 + 4150 ) x (10,100 / 12650 ) x (193-81) = 1,052,800
(7600 + 4150 ) x ( 2550 / 12650 ) x (418 -165) = 594,550 $ 1,647,350
----------------
Mix Variable $3,548,500
------------------
Quantity Variance:
ASQ x (STD Price - STD Variable cost)
(7600 + 4150 ) x (10,100 / 12650 ) x (193-81) = 1,052,800
(7600 + 4150 ) x ( 2550 / 12650 ) x (418 -165) = 594,550
-------------------
1,647,350
Master Budget 10,100 x (193 - 81) 1,131,200
2550 x (418 165) 645,150
---------------
1,776,350
------------------
Quantity Variance 3,423,700
------------------
Cross check of Answer ( 3548500 - 3423700) = 1,24,800 Favorable
-------------------------------
