Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Price    25,800 Favorable

Quantity 9,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

DIRECT MATERIALS VARIANCES

(standard\:cost-actual\:cost) \times actual \: quantity= DM \: price \: variance

std cost          $3.00

actual cost  $2.80

quantity       129,000

(3.00 - 2.80) \times 129,000= DM \: price \: variance

difference  $0.20

The actual cost was lower than standard, the variance is positive.

price variance  $25,800.00

<u>we multiply the difference by the actual quantity purchased.</u>

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance

std quantity                   126000.00

actual quantity           129000.00

std cost                                    $3.00

(126,000-129,000) \times 3.00 = DM \: quantity \: variance

difference                       -3000.00

The actual lbs. used were higher, we use more than expected, the variance will be negative.

efficiency variance    $(9,000.00)

<u>We apply the standard cost to each extra lbs used to get the quantity variance</u>
