Question

Rand Company produces dry fertilizer. At the beginning of the year, Rand had the following standard cost sheet:

Direct materials (8 lbs. @ $1.25)

$10.00

Direct labor (0.15 hr. @ $18.00)

2.70

Fixed overhead (0.20 hr. @ $3.00)

0.60

Variable overhead (0.20 hr. @ $1.70)

0.34

  Standard cost per unit

$13.64

Overhead rates are computed using practical volume, which is 49,000 units. The actual results for the year are as follows:

  • Units produced: 53,000
  • Direct materials purchased: 408,000 pounds at $1.32 per pound
  • Direct materials used: 406,800 pounds
  • Direct labor: 10,500 hours at $17.95 per hour
  • Fixed overhead: $36,570
  • Variable overhead: $18,000



MPV=28,560 UNFAV

 

MUV=21,500 FAV

 

LRV=525 FAV

 

LEV=45,900 UNFAV

 

FIXED SPENDING VARIANCE= 7,170 UNFAV

 

FIXED VOLUME VARIANCE= 2,400 FAV

 

VARIABLE SPENDING= 150 UNFAV

 

VARIABLE EFFICIENCY= 4,335 UNFAV 

 

  1. Prepare journal entries for the following:
  • The purchase of direct materials
  • The issuance of direct materials to production (Work in Process)
  • The addition of direct labor to Work in Process
  • The addition of overhead to Work in Process
  • The incurrence of actual overhead costs

 

  1. Prepare journal entries for the closing out of variances to Cost of Goods Sold. Post amounts from highest to lowest. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.

First, close direct materials and direct labor variances:

Second, recognize the overhead variances:

Post amounts from highest to lowest. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank

 

Second, recognize the overhead variances:

Post amounts from highest to lowest. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank
