Assignment 6 (similar to Exercise 14-26) Summit Machinery Company uses aluminum to manufacture a product, XV-1. Aluminum has historically been a large input to the product and one of the biggest costs to the process. In order to decrease these input costs, Summit recently signed a deal to begin obtaining its aluminum from a new supplier starting on May 1. Using the following manufacturing data, analyze the effects of the new aluminum on Summit's production variances. Click here to access the Assignment 6 Excel File of Manufacturing Data.

Select the "Connect to Data" option in the Data tab on your blank worksheet page, or you can select Data Source in the bottom left hand corner. Next, select Microsoft Excel in the list of connection sources. You will then select the Excel data file you just downloaded in your file explorer. 2. Within the Sheet1 tab, create a calculated field by either right clicking anywhere in the blank space of the Data pane and selecting Create Calculated Field or click the Analysis tab and select Create Calculated Field from the dropdown menu. Title the new variable "Direct Materials Purchase-Price Variance". In the space for formulas, multiply the actual amount purchased by the difference between the standard cost and actual cost of materials purchased. 3. Create a calculated field by either right clicking anywhere in the blank space of the Data pane and selecting Create Calculated Field or click the Analysis tab and select Create Calculated Field from the dropdown menu. Title the new variable "Direct Materials Usage Variance".
