Calculating materials variances
Learning Objective 3
Martin, Inc. is a manufacturer of lead crystal glasses. The standard direct materials quantity is 1.0 pound per glass at a cost of $0.50 per pound. The actual result for one month’s production of 6,500 glasses was 1.2 pounds per glass, at a cost of $0.30 per pound. Calculate the direct materials cost variance and the direct materials efficiency variance.
