Variance Analysis
In layman's terms, variance analysis is an analysis of a difference between planned and actual behavior. Variance analysis is mainly used by the companies to maintain a control over a business. After analyzing differences, companies find the reasons for the variance so that the necessary steps should be taken to correct that variance.
Standard Costing
The standard cost system is the expected cost per unit product manufactured and it helps in estimating the deviations and controlling them as well as fixing the selling price of the product. For example, it helps to plan the cost for the coming year on the various expenses.

At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 19,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct
materials and direct labor costs as follows:
Direct materials
$19,000
Direct labor
14,630
Total
$33,630
The standard materials price is $0.50 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $11.00 per hour. At the end of June, the actual
direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows:
Actual direct materials
$17,200
Actual direct labor
13,200
Total
$30,400
There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct
materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 16,700 units during June.
Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal
places and round your answers to the nearest dollar, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a
minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
