Required information Problem 10-47 Comprehensive Problem on Variance Analysis (LO 10-1, 10-3, 10-6) [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.) Springsteen Company manufactures guitars. The company uses a standard, job-order cost-accounting system in two production departments. In the Construction Department, the wooden guitars are built by highly skilled craftsmen and coated with several layers of lacquer. Then the units are transferred to the Finishing Department, where the bridge of the guitar is attached and the strings are installed. The guitars also are tuned and inspected in the Finishing Department. The diagram below depicts the production process. Construction Department Finishing Department (Basic guitar built from veneered wood.) (Bridge and strings attached; guitar tuned and inspected.) Each finished guitar contains seven pounds of veneered wood. In addition, one pound of wood is typically wasted in the production process. The veneered wood used in the guitars has a standard price of $12 per pound. The other parts needed to complete each guitar, such as the bridge and strings, cost $15 per guitar. The labor standards for Springsteen's two production departments are as follows: Construction Department: 7 hours of direct labor at $22 per hour Finishing Department: 2 hours of direct labor at $15 per hour The following pertains to the month of July. 1. There were no beginning or ending work-in-process inventories in either production department. 2. There was no beginning finished-goods inventory. 3. Actual production was 530 guitars, and 330 guitars were sold on account for $415 each. 4. The company purchased 6,300 pounds of veneered wood at a price of $12.50 per pound. 5. Actual usage of veneered wood was 4,800 pounds of the wood purchased during July. 6. Enough parts (bridges and strings) to finish 630 guitars were purchased at a cost of $9,030. 7. The Construction Department used 3,500 direct-labor hours. The total direct-labor cost in the Construction Department was $73,500. 8. The Finishing Department used 1,110 direct-labor hours. The total direct-labor cost in that department was $17,760. 9. There were no direct-material variances in the Finishing Department. Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.
