10 Homework eBook Calculator Standard Costing, Planned Variances Phono Company manufactures a plastic tay cell phone. The following standards have been established for the toy's materials and labor inputs: Standard Standard Quantity Standard Price (rate in $) Cost Direct materials 0.5 lb. $ 1.50 $0.75 Direct labor 0.15 hr. 10.00 1.50 During the first week of July, the company had the following results: Units produced 90,000 Actual labor costs 5138,000 Actual labor hours 12,730 Materials purchased and used 42,040 lbs. @ $1.45 per Ib The purchasing agent located a new source of slightly higher-quality plastic, and this material was used during the first week in July. Also, a new manufacturing layout was implemented on a trial basis. The new layout required a slightly higher level of skilled labor. The higher-quality material has no effect on labor utilization. Similarly, the new manufacturing approach has no effect on material usage. Round all variances to the nearest dollar. Required: 1. Conceptual Connection: Compute the materials price and usage variances. Materials price variance $ 2,102 Favorable Materials usage variance $ 4,440 Favorable Assuming that the materials variances are essentially attributable to the higher quality of materials, would you recommend that the purchasing agent continue to buy this quality, or should the usual quality be purchased? Assume that the quality of the end product is not affected significantly Buy this quality of materials. 2. Conceptual Connection: Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances. Labor rate variance Unfavorable $ $ 10,700 7,700 Labor efficiency variance Favorable Assuming that the labor variances are attributable to the new manufacturing layout, should it be continued or discontinued? Discontinued 3. Conceptual Connection: Refer to Requirement 2. Suppose that the industrial engineer argued that the new layout should not be evaluated after only one week. His reasoning was that it would take at least a week for the workers to become efficient with the new approach. Suppose that the production is the same the second week and that the actual labor hours were 13,200 and the labor cost was $132,000. If there is no variance, enter "0" and select "No variance" from the dropdown. Labor rate variance Labor rate variance $0 0 No variance No variance Labor efficiency variance $ 3,000 Favorable Should the new layout be adopted? Assume the variances are attributable to the new layout. Yes If so, what would be the projected annual savings? $ 6,000 x
