Answer:

The direct material quantity variance is $10,800 favourable. (the options in the question are not correct).

Explanation:

The direct materials quantity variance represents a difference between what was actually produced and the standard or idea that should have been produced especially with regards to the use of direct materials.

To calculate material quantity variance

Step 1:Calculate the Standard Usage of Material

Formula= (Actual Units of Finished goods Purchased x Standard Price of Material per unit)

= 4,000 units x 15 Pounds

= 60,000 Pounds

This means the standard material usage is 60,000 pounds

Step 2: Now calculate the Direct Material Quantity Variance

Formula= (Standard Material Usage - Actual Material Usage) x The Standard Price per Unit of Material

= 60,000 pounds (computed in step 1) - 40,000 pounds (given in the question)

= 20,000 pounds x $0.54

=$10,800

Since the standard Material is higher than the actual material usage, it means that the answer is as follows;

The direct material quantity variance is $10,800 favourable.

Kindly note that the multiple options in the question above are for a different set of figures and a different question.

Answer:

the equivalent units of production for materials = 352,616 units,

the equivalent units of production for for labor and overhead (conversion) = 339,304 units

Explanation:

First Determine the physical units that were Completed and Transferred out

<em>Units Completed and Transferred = Units in Opening Work In Process + Units Started During the Year - Units in Closing Work In Process</em>

= 80,400 + 301,400 - 51,200

= 330,600

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production for

1. Materials

Units Completed and Transferred ( 330,600 × 100%) = 330,600

Units in Closing Work In Process ( 51,200 × 43%) = 22,016

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials = 352,616

2. Labor and Overhead

Units Completed and Transferred ( 330,600 × 100%) = 330,600

Units in Closing Work In Process ( 51,200 × 17%) = 8,704

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Conversion = 339,304

Which of the following is absolutely necessary for successful implementation and operation of MRP? (I) accurate inventory record

frez [133]

Answer:

(A) I, II, and IV only

Explanation:

The Material Requirements Planning MRP is used to calculate tha materials needed for production. It may be done by software but it can be done without any technological tool.

The most important information for MRP is about the available inventory for future production, in this way the company will know what materials are needed for future production. To provide the materials on time it is necessary to know the master schedules of production, making sure that the supplies will be ready on time for manufacturing process. Finally, the accurate Bills of materials are used as a check list to verify that there is not any pending component for the production process. Even when the MRP may include costs, it is not a vital component for the system and some companies can have MRP without including costs.
