Variance Industries, Ltd. creates problems for accounting students. At the end of the first quarter of 2021, you have been asked to prepare a variance analysis of the company's operations for the quarter recently ended. You have gathered the data below from the company's accounts and the static budget prepared in December 2020. Variable and fixed manufacturing overhead are allocated based on direct- labour dollars. Units manufactured and sold Sales revenue Variable costs Direct materials Direct labour Variable manufacturing overhead Total variable costs Contribution margin Fixed manufacturing overhead Operating income (loss) Actual results Static budget 10,000 12,000 $320,000 $50,000 125,000 29,000 204,000 116,000 73,000 43,000 $360,000 $60,000 120,000 24,000 204,000 156,000 72,000 84,000
Can you help me interpret these results i)Revenue Variance, Price, and Volume Variance Revenue variance = Actual revenues – Static revenues = $2,200,000 - $1,9800,000 = $220,000 Price variance = Actual revenues – Flexible revenues =$2,2000,000 - $2,200,000 =$0 Volume variance = Flexible revenues – Static revenues =$2,200,000 - $1,980,000 = $220,000 ii) Cost Variance, Volume Variance and Management Variance Cost variance = Static cost - Actual cost =$1,350,000 -$1,625,000 = $-275,000 Volume = Static cost – Flexible costs = $1,350,000 - =$1,475,000 = $-125,000 Management variance = Flexible cost- Actual cost =$2,200,000 - 1,625,000 =$575,000 iii) Profit Variance Profit Variance= Actual Profit - Static Profit = 225,000 - 130,000 = 95,000 Revenue Variance = Actual Revenue - Static Revenue = 2, 200,000 - 1,980,000 = 220,000 Cost Variance = Static Cost - Actual Costs = 1,850,000 - 1,975,000 = (125,000) Can you help me interpret these results
Critically identify the possible causes of the labour and material variances based on obtained results: Material usage variance = -11200$ Wage rate variance = 10400 $ Labour efficiency variance = 7800 $
