Solutions

Expert Solution

a SC per unit for direct materials:
Standard unit 3 Lbs.
Standard price $ 2.40
Standard cost 7.2
SC per unit for DL
SL time per faucet (Hours) = 40/60 0.666667 Hours
SW per hour. $ 15
SC per unit for DL $ 10
b DMPV = (AP - SP)* AQ
AP $ 2.50
SP $ 2.40
AQ 14350
Direct materials price variance ((2.5-2.4)*14350) 1435 Unfavorable
DMQV = (AQ - SQ)* SP
Actual Quantity 14350
SQ = Number of faucets produced * Standard number of lbs. of brass (4800*3) 14400
Standard Price $ 2.40
DMQV ((14350-14400)*2.4) -120 Favorable
Total DMCV:
DMPV 1435 Unfavorable
DMQV 120 Favorable
Total DMCV: 1315 Unfavorable
c Direct labor rate variance: (SR - AR)* AH = ($15 - $14.40) * 3240 1944 Favorable
Direct labor time variance: (SH - AH) * SR = (3200 - 3240) * 15 600 Unfavorable
Total direct labor cost variance: Labor rate variance + Labor time variance = $1,944 (F) + $600 (U) 1344 Favorable
