Santiago Inc. processes a base chemical into plastic. Standard costs and actual costs for direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead incurred for the manufacture of 74,000 units of product were as follows:
Actual Costs
Direct Materials, Direct Labor, and Factory Overhead Cost Variance Analysis
Standard Costs
Direct materials
192,400 lbs. at $5.10 per lb.
190,500 lbs. at $5.00 per lb.
Direct labor
18,500 hrs. at $16.90 per hr.
18,930 hrs. at $17.30 per hr.
Factory overhead
Rates per direct labor hr., based on 100% of normal
capacity of 19,310 direct labor hrs.:
Variable cost, $3.70
Fixed cost, $5.80
$67,770 variable cost
$111,998 fixed cost
Each unit requires 0.25 hour of direct labor.
Required:
a. Determine the direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total direct materials cost variance. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
Direct Materials Price Variance
