Problem 10-15 (Algo) Comprehensive Variance Analysis [LO10-1, LO10-2, LO10-3]

Miller Toy Company manufactures a plastic swimming pool at its Westwood Plant. The plant has been experiencing problems as shown by its June contribution format income statement below:

Flexible Actual Budget Sales (7,000 pools) $ 310,000 $310,000 Variable expenses: Variable cost of goods sold* 110,810 131,685 Variable selling expenses 25,000 25,000 Total variable expenses 135,810 156,685 Contribution margin 174,190 153,315 Fixed expenses: Manufacturing overhead 66,000 66,000 Selling and administrative 91,000 91,000 Total fixed expenses 157,000 157,000 Net operating income (loss) $ 17,190 $ (3,685) ' Direct materials 4 . 1 pounds $ 2 . 70 per pound $ 11 . 07 Direct labor 0.4 hours $ 8.20 per hour 3.28 Variable manufacturing overhead 0.4 hours* $ 3.70 per hour 1.48 Total standard cost per unit $ 15-83 Required 1 Required 2 1a. Compute the following variances for June, materials price and quantity variances. 1b. Compute the following variances for June, labor rate and efficiency variances. 1c. Compute the following variances for June, variable overhead rate and efficiency variances. (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.) Show less 1a.
