Explanation / Answer

Answer:- Material price variance = (Standard price – Actual price) * Actual quantity used

                                      

Silver = ($23.00 per oz. - $24.00 per oz.)*873 ounces    

                                       = $873 Unfavourable

Crystals = ($.40 per crystal - $.38 per crystal)*5030 crystal    

                                       = $100.60 Favourable

Material Quantity variance = (Standard Quantity- Actual Quantity)*Standard price

                                 Silver =(913 oz. – 873 oz.)*$ 23.00 per oz.

                                             = $920 Favourable

                                 Crystal =(4980 crystal. – 5030 crystal)* $.40 per crystal

                                             = $20 Unfavourable

Where:-

Standard quantity = Per units required *Actual Production

                    Silver=.55 oz.*1660 charms

                              = 913 oz.

                  Crystal= 3.00 crystal*1660 charms = 4980 crystal

Labor Rate variance = (Standard rate – Actual rate) * Actual hours

                                      

=($13.00 per hour. - $12.50 per hour)*3470 hours    

                                       = $1736 Favourable
