E22-19

Haslett Inc., which produces a single product, has prepared the following standard cost sheet for one unit of the product.
Direct materials (8 pounds at $2.50 per pound) $20
Direct labor (3 hours at $12.00 per hour) $36

During the month of April, the company manufactures 230 units and incurs the following actual costs.

Direct materials purchased and used (1,900 pounds) $4,940
Direct labor (700 hours) $8,120

Journalize the entries to record the materials and labor variances. (List multiple debit/credit entries from largest to smallest amount, e.g. 10, 5, 2.)

(To record materials quantity variance)



(To record labor price variance)



(To record labor quantity variance)

Explanation / Answer

Total material variance

= (AQ x AP) - (SQ x SP)

(1,900 x $2.60 ) -( 1,840-$2.50)= $340.00

Total material variance = $340.00 ----- Unf

=====================

Material price variance = (AQ * AP) - (AQ * SP)

( 1,900 x $2.60 ) )- (1,900 x $2.50) =$190.00

Material price variance $190.00 ----------Unf

================

Material quantity variance

= (AQ x SP) - (SQ x SP)

( 1,900 x $2.50 ) - ( 1,840x 2.50)

Material quantity variance = $150.00------- Unf

(3)   Compute the total labor variance.

Total labor variance = (AH * AR) - (SH * SR)

(700 x $11.60 ) ) –( 690 x12.00

Material price variance = =160.00------- - Fav

=============

Labor price variance = (AH * AR) - (AH * SR)

( (700 x $11.60 ) ) ( 700 x12.00)

Material price variance = 280.00----- Fav

============

Labor price variance = (AH x SR) - (SH x SR)

( (700 x $12.00 ) - (690 x 12.00)

Material price variance = $120.00 ----- Unf
