production

The difference between actual results and the flexible budget amount is a(n) ___________ variance.

spending

calculated using the standard price of the input

he purchasing manager is generally responsible for the material ______variance, and the production manager is generally responsible for the material _______ variance.

price then quantity

T or F:All materials variances are generally the responsibility of the production manager.

False

T or F:Quantity standards refer to the price to be paid for each unit of the input.

False

Unfavorable

A price variance is the difference between the______.

actual price and the standard price multiplied by the actual amount of the input

actual then standard

rate

A materials price variance is equivalent to a labor ________ variance, and a materials quantity variance is equivalent to a labor_________ variance.

rate then efficiency
