Determine the price variance and quality variance for the


Problem - Haley Inc. has established the following standard unit costs:

Materials:  10 lbs @ $6 per lb ....................................      $ 60.00

Labor: 3hrs. @ $15 per hr.   ........................................         45.00

Factory  overhead: 3 hrs. @3.50 per hr.   ..................         10.50

Total standard cost per unit   ........................................    $ 115.50

The factory overhead budget includes the following data:

Percent of capacity ......................................................................     85%                            100%

Direct labor hours .........................................................................    76,500                        90,000

Variable costs .................................................................................    $153,000                  $180,000

Fixed costs ......................................................................................     135,000                      135,000

Total factory overhead cost .........................................................     $288,000                  $315,000

Variable overhead rate per hour .................................................                                        $      2.00

Fixed overhead rate per hour .......................................................                                                1.50

Total overhead rate per hour ........................................................                                        $      3.50

 

Actual manufacturing costs incurred:

 

Materials: 250,000 lbs. @ $6.20 .......................................................                                       $1,550,000

Labor:  77,400 hrs. @ $ 14.60 .............................................................                                         1,130,040

Factory overhead (including $135,000 fixed) ....................................                                          295,000

Total actual costs for 25,500 units .......................................................                                      $2,975,040

Standard cost of 25,500 units (standard time, 76,500 hrs) ............                                          2,945,250

Overall variance to be analyzed (unfavorable) ..................................                                        $29,790

Instructions:

(1) Determine the price variance and quality variance for the direct materials costs. Beside the amount of each variance, write the letter F or U to indicate whether the variance is favorable or unfavorable.

(2) Determine the rate variance and time variance for the direct labor cost. Beside the amount of each variance, write the letter F or U to indicate whether the variance is favorable or unfavorable.

(3) Determine the controllable variance and the volume variance for the factory overhead cost. Beside the amount of each variance, write the letter F or U to indicate whether the variance is favorable or unfavorable.
