Koontz Company manufactures a number of products. The standards relating to one of these products are shown below, along with actual cost data for May 14.40 Standard Actual cout per Cost per Unit Unit Direct materials Standard: 1.90 teet at $4.80 per foot $.9.12 Actual 1.85 foot at $5.20 per foot $ 9.62 Direct labore Standard: 1.45 hours at $20.00 per hour 29.00 Actual 1.50 hours at $19.50 per hour 29.25 Variable overhead Standards 1.45 hours at $10.00 per hour 14.50 Actual: 1.50 hours at $9.60 per hour Total cost per unit 552.62 $53.27 Excess of actual cost over standard cont per unit $0.65 The production superintendent was pleased when he saw this report and commented: "This $0.65 excess cost is well within the 4 percent limit management has set for acceptable variances. It's obvious that there's not much to worry about with this product." Actual production for the month was 19,500 units. Variable overhead cost is assigned to products on the basis of direct labor-hours. There were no beginning or ending inventories of materials, Required: 1. Compute the following variances for May a. Materials price and quantity variances, b. Labor rate and efficiency variances c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances 2. How much of the $0.65 excess unit cost is traceable to each of the variances computed in () above. 3. How much of the $0.65 excess unit cost is traceable to apparent inefficient use of labor time?
