Exercise 16-36 (Algo) Variable Cost Variances (LO 16-5)
Paynesville Corporation manufactures and sells a preservative used in food and drug manufacturing. The company carries no
inventories. The master budget calls for the company to manufacture and sell 132,000 liters at a budgeted price of $315 per liter this
year. The standard direct cost sheet for one liter of the preservative follows.
(2 pounds @ $20)
(0.5 hours @ $56)
Direct materials
Direct labor
28
Variable overhead is applied based on direct labor hours. The variable overhead rate is $180 per direct-labor hour. The fixed overhead
rate (at the master budget level of activity) is $90 per unit. All non-manufacturing costs are fixed and are budgeted at $2.8 million for
the coming year.
At the end of the year, the costs analyst reported that the sales activity variance for the year was $942,000 unfavorable.

- At the beginning of the year, Lopez Company had the following standard cost sheet for one of its chemical products: Lopez computes its overhead rates using practical volume, which is 80,000 units. The actual results for the year are as follows: (a) Units produced: 79,600; (b) Direct labor: 158,900 hours at 18.10; (c) FOH: 831,000; and (d) VOH: 112,400. Required: 1. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances. 2. Compute the fixed overhead spending and volume variances.arrow_forwardSmith Industries uses a cost system that carries direct materials inventory at a standard cost. The controller has established these standards for the cost of one basket (unit): Smith Industries made 3,000 baskets in July and used 15,500 pounds of material to make these units. Smith Industries paid $39,370 for the 15,500 pounds of material. A. What was the direct materials price variance for July? B. What was the direct materials quantity variance for July? C. What is the total direct materials cost variance? D. If Smith Industries used 15,750 pounds to make the baskets, what would be the direct materials quantity variance?arrow_forwardYohan Company has the following balances in its direct materials and direct labor variance accounts at year-end: Unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold equals 1,500,000, unadjusted Work in Process equals 236,000, and unadjusted Finished Goods equals 180,000. Required: 1. Assume that the ending balances in the variance accounts are immaterial and prepare the journal entries to close them to Cost of Goods Sold. What is the adjusted balance in Cost of Goods Sold after closing out the variances? 2. What if any ending balance in a variance account that exceeds 10,000 is considered material? Close the immaterial variance accounts to Cost of Goods Sold and prorate the material variances among Cost of Goods Sold, Work in Process, and Finished Goods on the basis of prime costs in these accounts. The prime cost in Cost of Goods Sold is 1,050,000, the prime cost in Work in Process is 165,200, and the prime cost in Finished Goods is 126,000. What are the adjusted balances in Work in Process, Finished Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold after closing out all variances? (Round ratios to four significant digits.
