The January operating data provided the standard prices, rates, times, and quantities per case. There were 1,500 actual cases produced during August, which was 250 more cases than planned at the beginning of the month. Actual data for August were as follows: Actual Direct Materials Price per Unit Actual Direct Materials Quantity per Case Cream base $0.016 per oz. 102 ozs. Natural oils $0.32 per oz. 31 ozs. Bottle (8-oz.) $0.42 per bottle 12.5 bottles Actual Direct Labor Rate Actual Direct Labor Time per Case Mixing $18.20 19.50 min. Filling 14.00 5.60 min. Actual variable overhead $305.00 Normal volume 1,600 cases The prices of the materials were different than standard due to fluctuations in market prices. The standard quantity of materials used per case was an ideal standard. The Mixing Department used a higher grade labor classification during the month, thus causing the actual labor rate to exceed standard. The Filling Department used a lower grade labor classification during the month, thus causing the actual labor rate to be less than standard. Required: Enter subtracted amounts with minus sign. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. 10. Determine the direct materials price and quantity variances for the three materials. Enter the costs in dollars and cents (carried to three decimal places when required).

Genuine Spice Inc. began operations on January 1 of the current year. The company produces 8-ounce bottles of hand and body lotion called Eternal Beauty. The lotion is sold wholesale in 12-bottle cases for $100 per case. There is a selling commission of $20 per case. The January direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead costs are as follows:

DIRECT MATERIALS
	Cost Behavior	Units per Case	Cost per Unit	Direct Materials Cost per Case
Cream base	Variable	100 ozs.	$0.02		$2.00
Natural oils	Variable	30 ozs.	0.30		9.00
Bottle (8-oz.)	Variable	12 bottles	0.50		6.00
					$17.00

DIRECT LABOR
Department	Cost Behavior	Time per Case	Labor Rate per Hour	Direct Labor Cost per Case
Mixing	Variable		20	min.	$18.00	$6.00
Filling	Variable		5		14.40	1.20
			25	min.		$7.20

FACTORY OVERHEAD
	Cost Behavior	Total Cost

Part C—August Variance Analysis

During September of the current year, the controller was asked to perform variance analyses for August. The January operating data provided the standard prices, rates, times, and quantities per case. There were 1,500 actual cases produced during August, which was 250 more cases than planned at the beginning of the month. Actual data for August were as follows:

	Actual Direct Materials Price per Unit	Actual Direct Materials Quantity per Case
Cream base	$0.016	per oz.	102	ozs.
Natural oils	$0.32	per oz.	31	ozs.
Bottle (8-oz.)	$0.42	per bottle	12.5	bottles

	Actual Direct Labor Rate	Actual Direct Labor Time per Case
Mixing	$18.20	19.50 min.
Filling	14.00	5.60 min.

Actual variable overhead	$305.00
Normal volume	1,600 cases

The prices of the materials were different than standard due to fluctuations in market prices. The standard quantity of materials used per case was an ideal standard. The Mixing Department used a higher grade labor classification during the month, thus causing the actual labor rate to exceed standard. The Filling Department used a lower grade labor classification during the month, thus causing the actual labor rate to be less than standard.

Required:

Enter subtracted amounts with minus sign.

Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

10. Determine the direct materials price and quantity variances for the three materials. Enter the costs in dollars and cents (carried to three decimal places when required).
