Explanation / Answer

SQ SR AQ AR Shampoo       943.00 oz.           0.60 per oz.       755.00 oz.           0.69 per oz. Water    8,610.00 gal.           0.05 per gal.    7,100.00 gal           0.09 per gal. Direct Labor       553.50 hr.         11.00 per hr.       350.00 hr.         12.50 per hr. Answer 1. Material Price Variance = (SR - AR) X AQ Shampoo (0.60 - 0.69) x 755          67.95 (U) Water (0.05 - 0.09) x 7100          284.00 (U) Total Material Price Variance        351.95 (U) Material quantity Variance = (SQ - AQ) X SR Shampoo (943 - 755) X $0.60        112.80 (F) Water (8610 - 7100) X $0.05          75.50 (F) Total Material Quantity Variance        188.30 (F) Answer 2. Labour Rate Variance = (SR - AR) X AH Labour Rate Variance = (11 - 12.50) X 350 hrs Labour Rate Variance = $525.00 (U) Labour Efficiency Variance = (SH - AH) X SR Labour Efficiency Variance = (553.50 - 350) X 11 Labour Efficiency Variance = $2238.50 (F)
