Answer:
26.66 or 27%
Explanation:
The computation of the margin of safety percentage is shown below:
Margin of Safety
= 100 - Break Even %
= 100 - 73.33
= 26.66 or 27%
Working Note
Sales (3,000 units) $60,000
Less: Variable expenses -$42,000
Contribution margin -$18,000
CM Ratio (A) 30.00%
Fixed expenses (B) 13,200
Break Even Point C = B ÷ A 44,000
Break Even % of Total Sale 73.33%
<u>Solution: </u>

Answer:
<u>DM variances:</u>
Price 2650
Quantity -4,800
<u>Labor Variances:</u>
Rate:-2,000
Efficiency 1400
Explanation:
<u>DM variances:</u>
Price
(std - actual) x actual quantity
(2.4 - 2.2) x 13,250 = 2,650
Quantity
(standard quantity - actual quantity) x std price
(7.5x1,500 - 13,250) x 2.4 = -4,800
<u>Labor Variances:</u>
Rate:
(std rate - actual rate) x actual hours
(7 - 9) x 1,000 = -2,000
actual rate = actual cost/actual hours = 9,000/1,000 = 9
Efficiency
(std hours - actual hours) x std rate
(1,500 x 0.8 - 1,000) x 7 = 1400
