Fleming has asked you 5 to evaluate costs for the past month. The following information is available: a. Basically, two types of tests are performed in the labblood tests and smears. During the past month. 2,340 blood tests and 3,120 smears were performed in the lab. 20 b. Small glass plates are used in both types of tests. During the past month, the hospital purchased 15,600 plates at a cost of $35,100. points This cost is net ofa 6% quantity discount. 1,560 of these plates were still on hand unused at the end ofthe month; there were no plates on hand at the beginning of the month. Sklpped c. During the past month, 1,450 hours of labour time were recorded in the lab. The cost of this labour time was $17,400. d. Variable overhead cost last month in the lab for utilities and supplies totalled $9,425. G The hospital has never used standard costs. By searching industry literature, however, you have determined the following nationwide Prim averages for hospital labs: Plates: Two plates are required per lab test. These plates cost $2.40 each and are disposed of after the test is completed. Labour: Each blood test should require 0.30 hour to complete, and each smear should require 0.15 hour to complete. The average cost of this lab time is $14.00 per hour. Overhead: Overhead cost is based on direct labourhours. The average rate for variable overhead is $5.50 per hour. Fleming would like a complete analysis of the cost of plates, labour, and overhead in the lab for the last month so that he can get to the root of the Iab's cost problem. Required: 1. Compute a materials price variance for the plates purchased last month and a materials quantity variance for the plates used last month. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favourable, "U" for unfavourable, and \"None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).)
