Following information relates to Confusion Corporation
Standard or Budgeted Costs Actual Costs.
Material: 5kg per unit @ $ 25 per unit
Labor: 4hours per unit @ $6 per unit.
3,000 units were made using 18,000 kg @$30
per unit and 38,000 hours were used @ $ 4.5
per hour.
Required: Calculate
1. Material Quantity Variance (MQV)
2. Material Price Variance (MPV)
3. Total material Variance or Overall Material Variance (TMV)
4. Labor Rate Variance (LRV)
5. Labor Efficiency Variance (LEV) & overall labor
variance.
1. MQV= (standard qty- actual qty)*standard cost p.u.
= (3000*5-18000)*25
= (75000)
2. MPV= (Standard unit cost- actual unit cost)*actual quantity used
= (25-30)* 18000
=(90000)
3. Total Material cost= Budgeted cost-Actual cost
= 15000*25-18000*30
= (165000)
4. Labour Rate variance= (Actual rate- standard rate)*Actual hours worked
= (4.5-6)*38000
= (57000)
5. Labour Efficiency Variance= (Actual hours- standard hours)* Standard per hour
= (38000- 12000)*6
= 156000
Total Labour Variance= LRV+ LEV= (57000)+156000= 99000
