Arturiano [62]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Direct Material Price Variance = Actual material cost - Actual Quantity × Standard Price

For Silver

= $13848 - 577 × 23

= $577 (U)

For Crystal

= $2926 - 7700 × 0.40

= $154 (F)

Direct Material Quantity Variance = (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) × Standard Price

For Silver

= (577 - 1530 × 0.40) × 23

= $805 (F)

For Crystal

= (7700 - 1530 × 5) × 0.40

= $20 (U)

Direct Labor Rate Variance = Actual Cost - Actual Hours × Standard Rate

= $36915 - 3210 × 12

= $1605 (F)

And,

Direct Labor efficiency Variance = (Actual hours - Standard hours) × Standard Rate

= (3210 - 1530 × 2) × 12

= $1800 (U)

Sheridan Company applied FIFO to its inventory and got the following results for its ending inventory. Cameras 113 units at a co

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Ending inventory is $24,917.

Explanation:

Lower-of-cost-or-net realizable value method implies that whichever is lower between the cost per unit and the net realizable value per unit is used to value the ending inventory of an item.

The ending inventory can therefore be determined as follows:

For Cameras:

Units = 113

Cost per unit = $61

net realizable value per unit = $74

We choose cost per unit since it is lower and we have:

Cameras ending inventory = 113 * $61 = $6,893

For Blu-ray players:

Units = 153

Cost per unit = $77

net realizable value per unit = $50

We choose net realizable value per unit since it is lower and we have:

Blu-ray players ending inventory = 153 * $50 = $7,650

For iPods:

Units = 133

Cost per unit = $86

net realizable value per unit = $78

We choose net realizable value per unit since it is lower and we have:

iPods ending inventory = 133 * $78 = $10,374

Calculation of ending inventory:

Ending inventory = Cameras ending inventory + Blu-ray players ending inventory + iPods ending inventory = $6,893 + $7,650 + $10,374 = $24,917
