Answer:

The cost of ending inventory is $24314.

Explanation:

Under the average cost method, the inventory is valued at the average cost of all the inventory that is available from the start of the month and the purchases made.

The average cost of inventory can be calculated by summing up the total cost of beginning inventory and purchases and dividing it by the total number of units available for sale.

Average cost per unit = [ 480*65 + 720*68 + 360*70 ] / [480 + 720 + 360]

Average cost per unit = 67.538 rounded off to $67.54 per unit

The total inventory available for sale = 480+720+360 = 1560 units

The ending inventory in units = 1560 - 1200 = 360 units

The cost of ending inventory = 360 * 67.54 = $24314.4 rounded off to $24314

Labor:

efficiency 1,740 U

Explanation:

DIRECT MATERIALS VARIANCES

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

std cost           $5.10

actual cost  $5.30

quantity          4,000

(5.1 - 5.3) \times 4,000 = DM \: price \: variance

price variance  $(800.00)

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

std quantity 4000.00

actual quantity 3900.00

std cost  $5.10

(4,000 - 3,900) \times 5.1 = DM \: quantity \: variance

quantity variance  $510.00

DIRECT LABOR VARIANCES

(standard\:rate-actual\:rate) \times actual \: hours = DL \: rate \: variance

std rate  $8.70

actual rate  $8.40

actual hours 6,200

(8.7 - 8.4) \times 6,200 = DL \: rate \: variance

rate variance  $1,860.00

(standard\:hours-actual\:hours) \times standard \: rate = DL \: efficiency \: variance

std  hours 6000.00

actual hours 6200.00

std rate  $8.70

(6,000 - 6,200) \times 8.70 = DL \: efficiency \: variance

efficiency variance  $(1,740.00)
