West and Jones Granite Corp uses a standard cost system for its single product. The following data are available: ACTUAL for the current year: Purchase of raw materials (5,200 sq ft at $11.80) $61,360 Raw materials used 4,800 sq ft Direct Labor costs (22,000 at $13.80) $303,600 Actual variable overhead cost $64,250 Units produced 5,820 units Standards per unit of product: Raw materials 1.0 sq ft at $10.70/sq ft Direct labor 3.8 hours at $13.50/hr Variable overhead $2.75 per direct labor hour Compute the following variances: 1. material variance (price and quantity) 2. labor variance (rate and efficiency) 3. variable overhead variance (spending and efficiency)
