Problem 9-18 Comprehensive Variance Analysis [LO9-4, LO9-5, LO9-6]

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

1 a. Materials price and quantity variances.

Material price variance = (Actual price - Standard price) * Actual Quantity purchased

= ($2.45 - $2) * 15,800

= $0.45 * 15,800

= $7110 (Unfavorable)

Materials Quantity variance = (Actual Quantity used - Standard Quantity allowed) * Standard price

(10600 - 3000 * 3.6) * $2

= (10,600 - 10,800) * $2

= 200 * $2

= 400 (Favorable)

b. Labor rate and efficiency variances.

Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - standard rate) * Actual hours

= (6.30 - 6.6) * 2,100

= 0.3 * 2,100

= 630 (Favorable)

Labor Efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed) * Standard rate

= (2100 - 3000 * 0.5) * 6.6

= (2,100 - 1,500) * 6.6

= 600 * 6.6

= 3960 (Unfavorable)

c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances

Variable overhead rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate * Actual machine hours)

= 3000 - (2.10 * 1200)

= 3,000 - 2,520

= 480 Unfavorable

Variable overhead Efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed)* Standard rate

= (1200 - 3000 * 0.3) * 2.10

= (1200 - 900) * 2.10

= 300 * 2.10

= 630 (Unfavorable)

2. Variances Amount

Material price variance 7,110 U

Material quantity variance 400 F

Labor rate variance 630 F

Labor efficiency variance 3,960 U

Variable overhead rate variance 480 U

Variable overhead efficiency variance 630 U

Net variance 11,150 U

The net variance of all the variance of the month is 11,150 (Unfavorable)

The Nelson Company has $1,522,500 in current assets and $525,000 in current liabilities. Its initial inventory level is $395,000

Pie

Answer:

$308,750

Explanation:

Current ratio = Current asset / Current liabilities

To get the short term debt increase, to the value of current assets and current liabilities, an amount must be added whereas the result must be 2.2

1,522,500 + y / 525,000 + y = 2.2

1,522,500 + y = 2.2 × (525,000 + y)

1,525,500 + y = 1,155,000 + 2.2y

1,525,500 - 1,155,000 = 2.2y - y

370,500 = 1.2y

y = 370,500 / 1.2

y = 308,750

It therefore means that the maximum amount that should be borrowed to purchase the inventory is $308,750

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$153.01

Explanation:

For computing the monthly payment we need to apply the PMT formula i.e to be shown in the attachment

Given that,

Present value = $8,100

Future value or Face value = $0

RATE = 60 months = 5 years × 12 months

NPER = 5.04% ÷ 12 months = 0.42%

The formula is shown below:

= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after applying the above formula, the monthly payment is $153.01

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

the formula for the margin of safety is as follows

margin = current sales level -breakeven point/ current sales level x 100

expected sales unit = 20,000 units

the break-even point is fixed costs/contribution margin

fixed costs= $360,000

contribution margin = sales price- variable costs

=61-37

=24

breakeven point = $360,000/ 24

=15000

the margin of safety = 20,000-15,000/20,000 x 100

=5000/20000 x 100

=25%
