Lionaire, Inc. has developed the following standard cost data based on 60,000 direct labor hours, which is 75% of capacity.?Per UnitDirect materials (6 lbs. @ $2.00/lb.)$12.00Direct labor (1 hrs. @ $8.00/hr.)8.00During the last period, the company operated at 80% of capacity and produced 128,000 units. Actual costs were:Direct materials (760,000 lbs.)$1,558,000Direct labor (126,000 hrs.)1,014,300Determine the direct materials price and quantity variances and the direct labor rate and efficiency variances. Indicate whether each variance is favorable or unfavorable.Direct materials:?  Price variance    Quantity variance  ? Direct labor:?  Rate variance    Efficiency variance   

What will be an ideal response?


Direct materials:

AQ ? AP=760,000 lbs. ? $2.05/lb*=$1,558,000
AQ ? SP=760,000 lbs. ? $2.00/lb=1,520,000
Direct materials price variance$38,000U
 *1,558,000/760,000 = $2.05/lb.
AQ ? SP=760,000 lbs. ? $2.00/lb=$1,520,000
SQ ? SP=768,000** lbs. ? $2.00/lb=1,536,000
Direct materials quantity variance$16,000F
 **128,000 x 6 lbs./unit = 768,000 lbs.

Direct labor:
AH ? AR=126,000 hrs. ? $8.05/hr***=$1,014,300
AH ? SR=126,000 hrs. ? $8.00/hr=1,008,000
Direct labor rate variance$6,300U
 ***$1,014,300/126,000 hr. = $8.05/hr.
AH ? SR=126,000 hrs. ? $8.00/hr=$1,008,000
SH ? SR=128,000 hrs.**** ? $8.00/hr=1,024,000
Direct labor efficiency variance$16,000F
 ****128,000 units x 1 hr/unit = 128,000 hr.
