The formula to compute the budgeted direct labor cost is

units to produce times direct labor required per unit times direct labor cost per hour

A manufacturing company has units to produce of 940 units for the month. Each unit requires 3.5 hours of labor to produce. The cost of direct labor is $15 per hour. The total cost of direct labor for the month will be $

$49350 15*3.5 = 52.5 52.5*940=49350

Unfavorable variance

(AQ x AP) > (SQ x SP) Actual > Standard

The formula to determine the materials to be purchased is:

(units to produce times materials required for each unit) plus desired ending materials inventory minus beginning materials inventory

1. Sale budget 2. Production budget 3. Direct materials, Direct Labor and Factory Overhead budgets 4. Cash budgets

ABC Company has set the following standards for one unit of product: Direct materials: 0.5 pounds @ $1.00 per pound; Direct labor: 1 hour @ $10.00 per hour. The company produced 35,000 units and had the following actual costs: Direct materials: 18,000 pounds at a total cost of $17,280; Direct labor: 36,000 hours at a total cost of $374,400. Compute the direct labor variance.

24,400 Unfavorable 35,000 x $10/hr = 350,000 374,400-350,000= 24,400

A company expects to sell 500 units during the second quarter and 550 units in the third quarter. Currently, during the second quarter, they have 46 units in beginning inventory. If they desire ending inventory of 10% of the next quarter's sales,____________ unit will need to be produced in the second quarter.

500-46(beginning units) = 454 Then take 10% of next quarter units so 550*.10 = 55 454+55 = 509

A manufacturing company has budgeted direct labor hours of 600 at a variable overhead rate per direct labor hour of $20. The budgeted fixed cost is $500 per month. The total budgeted overhead cost will be $

$12,500 600*20=12,000 + $500= $12,500

ABC Company has set the following standards for one unit of product: Direct materials: 0.5 pounds @ $1.00 per pound; Direct labor: 1 hour @ $10.00 per hour. The company produced 35,000 units and had the following actual costs: Direct materials: 18,000 pounds at a total cost of $17,280; Direct labor: 36,000 hours at a total cost of $374,400. Compute the direct materials quantity variance.

$500 U Reason: Standard allowed=35,000 units x .5 pounds=17,500 pounds. Actual pounds=18,000. Actual 18,000-standard 17,500 x $1.00= $500 U

ABC Company has set the following standards for one unit of product: Direct materials: 0.5 pounds @ $1.00 per pound; Direct labor: 1 hour @ $10.00 per hour. The company produced 35,000 units and had the following actual costs: Direct materials: 18,000 pounds at a total cost of $17,280; Direct labor: 36,000 hours at a total cost of $374,400. Compute the labor efficiency variance.

(36,000hrs x1hr x10/hr) - 360,000 (35,000hrs x1hr x10/hr) 350,000 360,000-350,000 = 10,000 Unfavorable because higher than standard

Favorable Variance

(AQ x AP) < (SQ x SP) Actual < Standard

A company had a standard sales price of $1.79 per unit and expected to sell 10,000 units. Due to a downturn in the economy, the product was marked down to $1.59 per unit and the company only sold 9,500 units. Calculate the sales price variance.

1,900 Unfavorable The product was marked down* Unfavorable 1.79*9,500=17005 1.59*9,500=15105 subtract these.

A manufacturing company's sales budget indicates the following sales: January: $25,000; February: $30,000; March: $35,000.

AHxAR= 84,000 (Actual) SHxSR=85,000 (standard) 85-84= 1,000 Favorable

LA Company has a beginning cash balance of $6,000, cash receipts of $12,000, cash payments of $7,200 and an outstanding loan balance of $1,500. Their preliminary cash balance is

Cash balance + Cash receipts = 18,000 - 7200 (cash payments) = 10,800 we ignore outstanding loan balance.

ABC Company has set the following standards for one unit of product: Direct materials: 0.5 pounds @ $1.00 per pound; Direct labor: 1 hour @ $10.00 per hour.
