Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the year. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the year. 3. For manufacturing overhead compute: a. The variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for the year. b. The fixed overhead budget and volume variances for the year. Note: 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. 1. Materials price variance 1. Materials quantity variance 2. Labor rate variance 2. Labor efficiency variance 3a. Variable overhead rate variance 3a. Variable overhead efficiency variance 3b. Fixed overhead budget variance 3b. Fixed overhead volume variance
Variance Analysis
In layman's terms, variance analysis is an analysis of a difference between planned and actual behavior. Variance analysis is mainly used by the companies to maintain a control over a business. After analyzing differences, companies find the reasons for the variance so that the necessary steps should be taken to correct that variance.
Standard Costing
The standard cost system is the expected cost per unit product manufactured and it helps in estimating the deviations and controlling them as well as fixing the selling price of the product. For example, it helps to plan the cost for the coming year on the various expenses.
