13. Copyright © 2007 Prentice-Hall. All rights reserved 13 Price Standards Direct materials – purchase price (after early-pay discount) + freight-in + receiving costs Direct labor – basic pay rates + payroll taxes + fringe benefits Manufacturing overhead – determine resources needed for support activities and determine appropriate allocation base

14. Copyright © 2007 Prentice-Hall. All rights reserved 14 Quantity Standards Direct materials – product specifications allowing for spoilage Direct labor – time requirements to produce product as well as level of experience needed to do specific tasks Manufacturing overhead – determine resources needed for support activities

21. Copyright © 2007 Prentice-Hall. All rights reserved 21 E23-20E23-20 Materials price variance: Actual Quantity = 145,000 feet Actual Price = $1.05 Standard Price = $1.10 (Actual Price – Standard Price) x Actual Quantity ($1.05 - $1.10) x 145,000 feet = $7,250 F

22. Copyright © 2007 Prentice-Hall. All rights reserved 22 E23-20E23-20 Materials efficiency variance: Actual Quantity = 145,000’ Standard Quantity = 20,000 fenders x 7’ = 140,000’ Standard Price = $1.10 (Actual Quantity–Standard Quantity) x Standard Price (145,000-140,000) x $1.10 = $5,500 U The $7250 favorable direct materials price variance combined with the $5500 unfavorable direct materials efficiency variance suggests that managers may have used cheaper, lower-quality materials that resulted in more waste. The net effect is favorable ($7250 F + $5500 U = $1750 F), so this appears to have been a wise decision if quality is maintained

23. Copyright © 2007 Prentice-Hall. All rights reserved 23 E23-20E23-20 Labor price variance: Actual Quantity = 450 hours Actual Price = $14.00 Standard Price = $13.00 (Actual Price – Standard Price) x Actual Quantity ($14 - $13) x 450 hours = $450 U

24. Copyright © 2007 Prentice-Hall. All rights reserved 24 E23-20E23-20 Labor efficiency variance: Actual Quantity = 450 hrs. Standard Quantity = 20,000 fenders x.025 = 500 hrs. Standard Price = $13.00 (Actual Quantity–Standard Quantity) x Standard Price (450 - 500) x $13 = $650 F The unfavorable direct labor price variance combined with the favorable direct labor efficiency variance suggests that managers may have used higher-paid, more skilled workers who performed more efficiently. Again the net effect is positive ($450 U + $650 F = $200 F), so this appears to have been a wise tradeoff
