Explanation / Answer

MIT Company Limited (a) Compute the total materials variance and the price and quantity variances. Total materials variance $ 4,583 Favorable Materials price variance $ 6,233 Favorable Materials quantity variance $ 1,650 Unfavorable Total Material Variance Standard quantity x Standard price) - (Actual quantity x Actual price) = (26 800 units x $ 5.50) - (27 100 units x $ 5.27) = $ 147,400 - $ 142,817 = $                                                                                                                     4,583.00 favourable Material price variance Actaual quantity purchased x Standard price) - (Actual quantity purchased x Actual price) = (27 100 units x $ 5.50) - (27 100 units x $ 5.27) = $ 149,050 - $ 142,817 = $                                                                                                                     6,233.00 favourable Material quantity variance (Standard quantity x Standard price) - (Actual quantity x standard price) = ( (13,400 x 2) x $ 5.50) - (27 100 x $ 5.50) = $ 147,400 - $ 149,050 = $                                                                                                                   -1,650.00 Unfavourable Total Variance $ 6,233- $ 1,650 = $ 4583 Favourable (b) Compute the total materials variance and the price and quantity variances assuming the purchase price is $ 5.65 and the quantity purchased and used is 26,500units Total materials variance $ 2,325 Unfavorable Materials price variance $ 3,975 Unfavorable Materials quantity variance $ 1,650 Favorable Total Material Variance Standard quantity x Standard price) - (Actual quantity x Actual price) = (26 800 units x $ 5.50) - (26 500 units x $ 5.65) = $ 147,400 - $ 149,725 = $                                                                                                                   -2,325.00 Unfavourable Material price variance Actaual quantity purchased x Standard price) - (Actual quantity purchased x Actual price) = (26 500 units x $ 5.50) - (26 500 units x $ 5.65) = $ 145,750 - $ 149,725 = $                                                                                                                   -3,975.00 Unfavourable Material quantity variance (Standard quantity x Standard price) - (Actual quantity x standard price) = ( (13,400 x 2) x $ 5.50) - (26 500 x $ 5.50) = $ 147,400 - $ 145,750 = $                                                                                                                     1,650.00 Favourable Total Variance $ 1,650- $ 3,975 =   - $ 2,325 Unfavourable
