Mix variance = (RSQ - AQ) * SP | ||||||||
Blueberries | (48000 - 58000) * 0.48 | -4800 | ||||||
Blackberries | (192000 - 176000) * 0.42 | 6720 | ||||||
Raspberries | (80000 - 86000) * 0.36 | -2160 | ||||||
Total mix variance | -240 | |||||||
Yield variance = (SQ - RSQ) * SP | ||||||||
Blueberries | (45000 - 48000) * 0.48 | -1440 | ||||||
Blackberries | (180000 - 192000) * 0.42 | -5040 | ||||||

*Calculation of SQ (Standard quantity): | ||||||||
Blueberries | (240000/80*15) | 45000 | ||||||
Blackberries | (240000/80*60) | 180000 | ||||||
Raspberries | (240000/80*25) | 75000 | ||||||
*Calculation of RSQ (Revised standard quantity): | ||||||||
Blueberries | 45000 / 300000 * 320000 | 48000 | ||||||
Blackberries | 180000 / 300000 * 320000 | 192000 | ||||||
Raspberries | 75000 / 300000 * 320000 | 80000 | ||||||
