Question

The standard cost of Product B manufactured by Mateo Company includes three units of direct materials at $5.00 per unit. During June, 28,000 units of direct materials are purchased at a cost of $4.70 per unit, and 28,000 units of direct materials are used to produce 9,000 units of Product B

Compute the total materials variance and the price and quantity variances assuming the purchase price is $5.20 and the quantity purchased an used is 26,200 units

Total Materials variance     $                           
Materials price variance      $                             
Materials quantity variance $                              

Explanation / Answer

Total Material Variance

= $3,400 Favorable

Material Price Variance

= $8,400 Favorable

Material Quantity Variance

= $5,000 Unfavorable

Working:

Material Price Variance:

Material Price Variance

= Actual Quantity * (Standard Price - Actual Price)

= 28000 * ( 5 - 4.7)

= 28000 * 0.3

= $8,400 Favorable

Material Quantity Variance:

Actual Quantity for producing 9000 units of product "B"

= 28000 units

Standard Quantity for producing 1 unit of product "B" 3 uints material

= 9000 * 3

= 27000

Material Quantity Variance

= (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Price

= (28000 - 27000) * 5

= 1000 * 5

= $5,000 Unfavorable

Total Material Variance

= (Standard Quantity * Standard Price) - (Actual Quantity * Actual Price)

= (27000 * 5) - (28000 * 4.7)

= 135000 - 131600

= $3,400 Favorable

Total Material Variance

= -$1,240 Unfavorable

Material Price Variance

= -$5,240 Unfavorable

Material Quantity Variance

= $4,000 Favorable

Working:

Material Price Variance

= Actual Quantity * (Standard Price - Actual Price)

= 26200 * (5 - 5.2)

= 26200 * -0.2

= -$5,240 Unfavorable

Material Quantity Variance

= (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Price

= (26200 - 27000) * 5

= 800 * 5

= $4,000 Favorable

Total Material Variance

= (Standard Quantity * Standard Price) - (Actual Quantity * Actual Price)

= (27000 * 5) - (26200 * 5.2)

= 135000 - 136240

= -$1,240 Unfavorable

Total Material Variance

= $3,400 Favorable

Material Price Variance

= $8,400 Favorable

Material Quantity Variance

= $5,000 Unfavorable

Working:


Material Price Variance:


Material Price Variance

= Actual Quantity * (Standard Price - Actual Price)


= 28000 * ( 5 - 4.7)


= 28000 * 0.3


= $8,400 Favorable



Material Quantity Variance:

= 28000 units



Standard Quantity for producing 1 unit of product "B" 3 uints material


= 9000 * 3


= 27000



Material Quantity Variance

= (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Price


= (28000 - 27000) * 5


= 1000 * 5


= $5,000 Unfavorable



Total Material Variance

= (Standard Quantity * Standard Price) - (Actual Quantity * Actual Price)


= (27000 * 5) - (28000 * 4.7)

= $3,400 Favorable

Total Material Variance

= -$1,240 Unfavorable

Material Price Variance

= -$5,240 Unfavorable

Material Quantity Variance

= $4,000 Favorable

Working:




Material Price Variance

= Actual Quantity * (Standard Price - Actual Price)


= 26200 * (5 - 5.2)


= 26200 * -0.2


= -$5,240 Unfavorable



Material Quantity Variance

= (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Price


= (26200 - 27000) * 5


= 800 * 5


= $4,000 Favorable



Total Material Variance

= (Standard Quantity * Standard Price) - (Actual Quantity * Actual Price)


= (27000 * 5) - (26200 * 5.2)


= 135000 - 136240


= -$1,240 Unfavorable
