Fixed costs = ($1·2 x 10,000) + ($1 x 12,500) – $2,500 = $22,000.Contribution per unit of P = $3·20 + $1·20 = $4·40.($22,000 + $60,000)/$4·40 = 18,636 units.6AProduct A B C DSelling price per unitRaw material costDirect labour cost at $11 per hour Variable overhead cost Contribution per unit $160$24$66$24$214$56$88$18$100$22$33$24$140$40$22$18 $46$52$21$60––––––––––––––––Direct labour hours per unit Contribution per labour hour Rank6$7·6728$6·5043$72$3013Normal monthly hours (total units x hours per unit)1,8001,000720800 If the strike goes ahead, only 2,160 labour hours will be available.Therefore make all of D, then 1,360 hours’ worth of A (2,160 – 800 hrs).7 8B460 – 400 = 60 clients$40,000 – $36,880 = $3,120VC per unit = $3,120/60 = $52Therefore FC = $40,000 – (460 x $52) = $16,080BIncrease in variable costs from buying in (2,200 units x $40 ($140 – $100)) = $88,000 Less the specific fixed costs saved if A is shut down = ($10,000)Decrease in profit = $78,000Only the first statement is correct. Traditional absorption costing tends to over-allocate costs to high volume products, not under-allocate them.10 11BBy definition, a shadow price is the amount by which contribution will increase if an extra kg of material becomesavailable. 20 x $2·80 = $56.CNeither statement is correct. Responsibility is not assigned solely to senior managers as, for example, in a TQM environment quality is everybody’s responsibility. In addition, standard costing can be difficult to apply in dynamic situations.12 13AThe second statement is talking about flow cost accounting, not input/output analysis.DTarget 1 is a financial target and so assesses economy factors. Target 2 is measuring the rate of work handled by staff which is an efficiency measure. Target 3 is assessing output, so is a measure of effectiveness.14 15BIn comparison to participative budgeting, an advantage of non-participative budgeting is that it should be less time consuming, as less collaboration will be required in order to produce the budgets.CThe target costing process always begins with the target selling price being set. The required profit is then determined and deducted from the target selling price to estimate the target cost. The target cost is then compared to the estimated current cost and the cost gap is then calculated.16 17AThis is a description of an incremental budget.ANew profit figures before salary paid:Good manager: $180,000 x 1·3 = $234,000Average manager: $180,000 x 1·2 = $216,000Poor: $180,000 x 1·1 = $198,000EV of profits = (0·35 x $234,000) + (0·45 x $216,000) + (0·2 x $198,000) = $81,900 + $97,200 + $39,600 = $218,700 Deduct salary cost and EV with manager = $178,700Therefore do not employ manager as profits will fall by $1,300.18BSet-up costs per production run = $140,000/28 = $5,000Cost per inspection = $80,000/8 = $10,000Other overhead costs per labour hour = $96,000/48,000 = $2 Overheads costs of product D:$Set-up costs (15 x $5,000) Inspection costs (3 x $10,000) Other overheads (40,000 x $2)75,000 30,000 80,000––––––––185,00020This is an example of feedforward control as the manager is using a forecast to assist in making a future decision.AIf demand is inelastic or the product life cycle is short, a price skimming approach would be more appropriate.1 Chair Co(a) Learning curve formula = y = ax bCumulative average time per unit for 8 units: Y = 12 x 8–·415 = 5·0628948 hours.Therefore cumulative total time for 8 units = 40·503158 hours. Cumulative average time per unit for 7 units: Y = 12 x 7–·415= 5·3513771 hours.Therefore cumulative total time for 7 units = 37·45964 hours.Therefore incremental time for 8th unit = 40·503158 hours –37·45964 hours = 3·043518 hours. T otal labour cost for 8th unit =3·043518 x $15 = $45·65277 Material an d overheads cost per unit = $230 Therefore total cost per unit = $275·65277 Therefore price per unit = $413·47915 (b) (i)Actual learning rate Cumulative number of seats produced 1 2 4 8Cumulative totalCumulative average hours per unit 12·5 12·5 x r 12·5 x r 2 hours 12·5 ? ? 34·312·5 x r 3Using algebra: 34·3 = 8 x (12·5 x r 3)4·2875 = (12·5 x r 3) 0·343 = r 3 r = 0·70The learning effect was 70% as compared to the forecast rate of 75%, meaning that the labour force learnt more quickly than anticipated. (ii) Adjusted priceThe adjusted price charged will be lower than the original price calculated in part (a). This is because the incremental cost of the 8th unit will be lower given the 70% learning rate, even though the first unit took 12·5 hours. We kno w this because we are told that the cumulative time for 8 units was actually 34·3 hours. This is lower than the estimated cumulative time in part (a) for 8 units of 40·503158 hours and therefore, logically, the actual incremental time for the 8th unit must be lower than the estimated 3·043518 hours calculated in part (a). Consequently, total cost will be lower and price will be lower, given that this is based on cost.2Glam CoBottleneck activity(a) The bottleneck may have been worked out as follows:Total salon hours = 8 x 6 x 50 = 2,400 each year. The capacity for each senior stylist must be 2,400 hours, which equates to 2,400 cuts each year (2,400/1). Since there are three senior stylists, the total capacity is 7,200 hours or 7,200 cuts each year. Using this method, the capacity for each activity is as follows: Cut Treatment 16,000 4,800 Assistants Senior stylists Junior stylists 48,000 7,200 9,6009,600The bottleneck activity is clearly the work performed by the senior stylists.The senior stylists’ time is called a bottleneck activity because it is the activity which prevents the salon’s throughpu t from being higher than it is. The total number of cuts o r treatments which can be completed by the salon’s senior stylists is less than the number which can be completed by other staff members, considering the number of each type of staff available and the time required by each type of staff for each client.(b) TPARCut $ Treatment$ Selling price 60 110Materials ThroughputThroughput per bottleneck hour Total salon costs per BN hour (w1) TPAR0·60 59·40 59·40 42·56 1·48 (7·40+0·6) 102 68 42·56 1·6Working 1: Total salon costs(3 x $40,000) + (2 x $28,000) + (2 x $12,000) + $106,400 = $306,400 Therefore cost for each bottleneck hour =$306,400/7,200 = $42·56Note: Answers based on total salary costs were $80,000 were also equally acceptable since the wording of question was open to interpretation.3Hi Life Co Direct materials: Fabric WoodNote 1 2 $ 200 m 2 at $17·50 per m 2 20 m at $8·20 per m 30 m at $8·50 per m 3,500 164 2552 Direct labour: SkilledSemi-skilledFactory overheadsAdministration overheads50 hours at $24 per hour 300 hours at $14 per hour 20 hours at $15 per hour3 4 5 61,200 4,200 300 –––––––Total cost 9,619–––––– 1 2 Since the material is in regular use by HL Co, it is replacement cost which is the relevant cost for the contract. 30 m will have to be ordered from the alternative supplier for immediate delivery but the remaining 20 m can be used from inventory and replaced by an order from the usual supplier at a cost of $8·20 per m.3 4 5There is no cost for the first 150 hours of labour because there is spare capacity. The remaining 50 hours will be paid at time and a half, which is $16 x 1·5, i.e. $24 per hour.HL Co will choose to use the agency workers, who will cost $14 per hour, since this is cheaper than paying existing semi-skilled workers at $18 per hour ($12 x 1·5) to work overtime.None of the general factory costs are incremental, so they have all been excluded. However, the supervisor’s overtime pay is incremental, so has been included. The supervisor’s normal salary, on the other hand, h as been excluded because it is not incremental.6 These are general overheads and are not incremental, so no value should be included for them.4Jamair(a) The four perspectivesFinancial perspective –this perspective is concerned with how a company looks to its shareholders. How can it create value for them? Kaplan and Norton identified three core financial themes which will drive the business strategy: revenue growth and mix, cost reduction and asset utilisation.Customer perspective – this co nsiders how the organisation appears to customers. The organisation should ask itself: ‘to achieve our vision, how should we appear to our cust omers?’ The customer perspective should identify the customer and market segments in which the business will compete. There is a strong link between the customer perspective and the revenue objectives in the financial perspective. If customer objectives are achieved, revenue objectives should be too.Internal perspective – this requires the organ isation to ask itself: ‘what must we excel at to achieve our financial and customer objectives?’ It must identify the internal business processes which are critical to the implementation of the organisation’s strategy. These will include the innovation process, the operations process and the post-sales process.Learning and growth perspective –this requires theorganisation to ask itself whether it can continue to improve and create value. The organisation must continue to invest in its infrastructure –i.e. people, systems and organisational procedures – in order to improve the capabilities which will help the other three perspectives to be achieved.(b)Goals and measuresFinancial perspectiveGoal Performance measureTo use fewer planes to transport customers Lease costs of plane per customerExplanation – operating efficiency will be driven by getting more customers on fewer planes. This goal and measure cover the cost side of this.Goal Performance measureTo increase seat revenue per plane Revenue per available passenger mileExplanation – this covers the first part of achieving operating efficiency – by having fewer empty seats on planes.Customer perspectiveGoal Performance measureTo ensure that flights are on time‘On time arrival’ ranking from the aviation authorityExplanation – Jamair is currently number 7 in the rankings. If it becomes known as a particularly reliable airline, customers are more likely to use it, which will ultimately increase revenue.Goal Performance measureTo reduce the number of flights cancelled The number of flights cancelledExplanation –again, if flights are seen to be cancelled frequently by Jamair, customers will not want to use it. It needsto be perceived as reliable by its customers.Internal perspectiveGoal Performance measureTo improve turnaround time on the ground‘On the ground’ timeExplanation –less time spent on the ground means fewer planes are needed, which will reduce plane leasing costs. However, it is important not to compromise the quality of cleaning or make errors in refuelling as a consequence of reducing on the ground time.Goal Performance measureTo improve the cleanliness of Jamair’s planes The percentage of customers happy with the standard of the planes, as reported in the customer satisfaction surveys.Explanation –at present, only 85% of customers are happy with the standard of cleanliness on Jamair’s planes. This could be causing loss of revenue.Goal Performance measureTo develop the online booking system Percentage downtime.Explanation –since the company relies entirely on the booking system for customer booking of flights and check-in, it is critical that it can deal with the growing number of customers.Learning perspectiveGoal Performance measureTo reduce the employee absentee rate The number of days absent per employeeExplanation –it is critical to Jamair that its workforce is reliable as, at worse, absent staff lead to cancelled flights.Goal Performance measureNumber of days’ training per ground crew member Toincrease ground crew training on cleaning andrefuelling proceduresExplanation –if ground crew are better trained, they can reduce the number of minutes that the plane stays on the ground, which will result in fewer planes being required and therefore lower costs. Also, if their cleaning is better, customer satisfaction and retention will increase.Note: Only one goal and measure were required for each perspective. In order to gain full marks, answers had to be specific to Jamair as stated in the requirements.5Safe Soap Co(a) Variance calculationsMix varianceTotal kg of materials per standard batch = 0·25 + 0·6 + 0·5 = 1·35 kgTherefore standard quantity to produce 136,000 batches = 136,000 x 1·35 kg = 183,600 kgActual total kg of materials used to produce 136,000 batches = 34,080 + 83,232 + 64,200 = 181,512 kgMaterial Actual quantityStandard mixkgs181,512 x 0·25/1·35 = 33,613·33181,512 x 0·6/1·35 =Actual quantityActual mixkgs34,08083,232Variance Standard costper kgVariancekgs(466·67)(2,560)$104$(4,666·70)(10,240)LyeCoconut oil Shea butter80,672181,512 x 0·5/1·35 = 67,226·6764,2003,026·6739,080·01––––––––––––––––––––––––––181,512181,512(5,826·69)A––––––––––––––––––––––––––Yield varianceMaterial Standard quantityStandard mix Actual quantityStandard mixkgs33,613·3380,672Variance Standard costper kgVariancekgs386·67928$104$3,866·703,712Lye Coconut oil Shea butter 0·25 x 136,000 = 0·6 x 136,000 =0·5 x 136,000 =34,00081,60068,00067,226·67773·3332,319·99––––––––183,600––––––––––––––––––181,5129,898·69F––––––––––––––––––––––––––(b)(i) A materials mix variance will occur when the actual mix of materials used in production is different from the standard mix. So, it is inputs which are being considered. Since the total mix variance is adverse for the Safe Soap Co, this means that the actual mix used in September and October was more expensive than the standard mix.A material yield variance arises because the output which was achieved is different from the output which would have been expected from the inputs. So, whereas the mix variance focuses on inputs, the yield variance focuses on outputs.In both September and October, the yield variance was favourable, meaning that the inputs produced a higher level of output than one would have expected.(ii)Whilst the mix and yield variances provide Safe Soap Co with a certain level of information, they do not necessarily explain any quality issues which arise because of the change in mix. The consequences of the change may well havean impact on sales volumes. In Safe Soap Co’s case, the sales volume variance is adverse, meaning that sales volumes have fallen in October. It is not known whether they also fell in September but it would be usual for the effects on sales of the change in mix to be slightly delayed, in this case by one month, given that it is only once the customers startreceiving the slightly altered soap that they may startexpressing their dissatisfaction with the product.There may also be other reasons for the adverse sales volume variance but given the customer complaints which have been received, the sales manager’s views should b e taken on b oard.Fundamentals Level – Skills Module, Paper F5Performance Management December 2014 Marking Scheme Section A Marks2 marks per question40––––––Section B1(a)PriceCumulative average time per unit for 8 units T otal time for 8 unitsCumulative average time per unit for 7 units T otal time for 7 unitsIncremental time for 8th unitCost for 8th unitTotal cost1 0·5 1 0·5 0·5 0·5 0·5Price0·5–––5–––(b)(i)Learning rateCalculating learning rate Saying whether better or worse 2·5 0·5–––3–––(ii)Effect on price2–––Total marks10––––––2(a)(b)Calculation and justification of bottleneckExplanation of bottleneck31–––4–––TPARThroughput1111 Throughput per bottleneck hourTotal salon costsCost per hourTPAR2–––6–––Total marks10––––––3Fabric calculation Fabric reasonWood calculation 0·5 0·5 1Wood reason1Skilled labour calculation Skilled labour reason 1 1Semi-skilled labour calculationSemi-skilled labour reasonFactory overheads calculation Factory overheads reason Administration overheads reason T otal relevant cost (lowest costestimate)0·5 1 0·5 1·5 1 0·5–––Total marks10––––––(此文档部分内容来源于网络,如有侵权请告知删除,文档可自行编辑修改内容,供参考,感谢您的配合和支持)Marks4(a)(b)PerspectivesExp lanation for each perspective1·5–––6–––Goals and measuresEach goal/measure/explanationPresentation and structure21–––9–––Total marks15––––––5(a)(b)Variance calculationsMix varianceQuantity variance44–––8–––(i)VariancesMarks per variance explained2 –––4–––(ii)DiscussionPer valid point1–––3–––Total marks15––––––。

Traditional absorption costing tends to over-allocate costs to high vo products, not under-allocate them.9 BBy definition, a shadow price is the amount by which contribution will increase if an extra kg of material becomes available. 20 x$2 - 80 = $56.December 2014 Answers11CNeither statement is correct. Responsibility is not assigned solely to senior managers as, for example, in a TQM enviro qualityis everybody ' s responsibility. In addition, standard co sting can be difficult to apply in dynamic situations.10 AThe second statement is talking about flow cost accounting, not input/output analysis.13DTarget 1 is a financial target and so assesses economy factors. Target 2 is measuring the rate of work handled by staff which is anefficiency measure. Target 3 is assessing output, so is a measure of effectiveness.11 BIn comparison to participative budgeting, an advantage of non-participative budgeting is that it should be less time consuming, as less collaboration will be required in order to produce the budgets.15CThe target costing process always begins with the target selling price being set. The required profit is then determine deductedfrom the target selling price to estimate the target cost. The target cost is then compared to the estimated current co and the cost gap is then calculated.12 AThis is a description of an incremental budget.17ANew profit figures before salaryGaidd manager: $180,000 x 1 • 3 = $234,000Average manager: $180,000 x 1 • 2 = $216,000Poor: $180,000 x 1 • 1 = $198,000EV of profits = (0 • 35 x $234,000) + (0 • 45 x $216,000) + (0 • 2 x $198,000) = $81,900 + $97,200 + $39,600 = $218,700Deduct salary cost and EV with manager = $178,700Therefore do not employ manager as profits will fall by $1,300.13 BSet-up costs per production run = $140,000/28 = $5,000Cost per inspection = $80,000/8 = $10,000Other overhead costs per labour hour = $96,000/48,000 = $2Overheads costs of product D:$Set-up costs (15 x $5,000) 75,000Inspection costs (3 x $10,000) 30,000Other overheads (40,000 x $2) 80,000-85,000 _-Overhead cost per unit = 185,000/4,000 = $46 • 2519AThis is an example of feedforward control as the manager is using a forecast to assist in making a future decision.20AIf demand is inelastic or the product life cycle is short, a price skimming approach would be more appropriate.Section B= n ■ JJ ■■ ■ ■.a1 Chair Co(a) Learning curve formula = y = axCumulative average time per unit for 8 units: Y = 12 x 8-• 415Tffere016e8(§u48idrlotivE total time for 8 units = 40 Cumulative average time per unit for 7 units: Y = 12 x 7-• 415There3re37umuiotive total time for 7 units = Therefore incremental time for 8th unit = 40-50315837 • 45964 -503158 hoursTotal labour cost for 8th unit =3• 043518 x $15 = $45• 65277Material and overheads cost per unit = $230 Therefore total cost per unit = Therefore price per unit = $413$275 • 65277 -4791537 • 45964 hours = 3• 043518 hours.(b) (i)(ii )Glam CoActual learningC^nulative number of seats produced 1 2 4 8Cumulative totalhours 12 • 534 • 3 Cumulative average hours per unit 12 • 12 • 12 •12 • 5 5 x r5 x r 2 5 x r 3Using algebra: 34 • 3 = 8 x (12• 5 xr 3)4 • 2875 = (12 • 5 x r 3) 0= 343 =D 3The learning effect was 70% as compared to the forecast rate of 75%, meaning that the labour force learnt more quickly than anticipated.Adjusted priceThe adjusted price charged will be lower than the original price calculated in part (a). This is because the incremental cost of the 8th unit will be lower given the 70% learning rate, even though the first unit took 12 know this because we are told that the cumulative time for 8 unit estimated cumulative time in part (a) for 8 units of 40 for the 8th unit must be lower than the estimated 3 lower-5 he urs.

Consequently, total cost w(a) Bottl^nd^rice will be lower, given that this is based on cost.Thvbottleneck may have been worked out as follows:Total salon hours = 8 x 6 x 50 = 2,400 each year. The capacity for each senior stylist must be 2,400 hours, which equates to 2,400 cuts each year (2,400/1).

Like many businesses Yam faces tough price competition in what is a mature world market.The factory has 50 production lines each of which contain the three processes: Raw material for the sheet metal is first pressed then stretched and finally rolled. The processing capacity varies for each process and the factory manager has provided the following data:Processing time per metre in hoursProduct A Product B Product CPressing0·500·500·40Stretching0·250·400·25Rolling0·400·250·25The factory operates for 18 hours each day for five days per week. It is closed for only two weeks of the year for holidays when maintenance is carried out. On average one hour of labour is needed for each of the 225,000 hours of factory time. Labour is paid $10 per hour.The raw materials cost per metre is $3·00 for product A, $2·50 for product B and $1·80 for product C. Other factory costs (excluding labour and raw materials) are $18,000,000 per year. Selling prices per metre are $70 for product A, $60 for product B and $27 for product C.Yam carries very little inventory.Required:(a)Identify the bottleneck process and briefly explain why this process is described as a ‘bottleneck’.(3 marks)(b)Calculate the throughput accounting ratio (TPAR) for each product assuming that the bottleneck process isfully utilised. (8 marks)(c)Assuming that the TPAR of product C is less than 1:(i)Explain how Yam could improve the TPAR of product C.

The salon traditionally provided a range of hair services to female clients only, including cuts, colouring and straighteningA year ago, at the start of his 2009 financial year, Oliver decided to expand his operations to include the hairdressingneeds of male clients. Male hairdressing prices are lower, the work simpler (mainly hair cuts only) and so the time taken per male client is much less.The prices for the female clients were not increased during the whole of 2008 and 2009 and the mix of services provided for female clients in the two years was the same.The latest financial results are as follows:20082009$$$$ Sales200,000238,500 Less cost of sales:Hairdressing staff costs65,00091,000Hair products –female29,00027,000Hair products – male8,000––––––––––––––94,000126,000––––––––––––––––Gross profit106,000112,500 Less expenses:Rent10,00010,000Administration salaries9,0009,500Electricity7,0008,000Advertising2,0005,000––––––––––––––T otal expenses28,00032,500––––––––––––––––Profit78,00080,000––––––––––––––––Oliver is disappointed with his financial results. He thinks the salon is much busier than a year ago and was expecting more profit. He has noted the following extra information:1.Some female clients complained about the change in atmosphere following the introduction of male services,which created tension in the salon.2.T wo new staff were recruited at the start of 2009. The first was a junior hairdresser to support the specialisthairdressers for the female clients. She was appointed on a salary of $9,000 per annum. The second new staff member was a specialist hairdresser for the male clients. There were no increases in pay for existing staff at the start of 2009 after a big rise at the start of 2008 which was designed to cover two years’ worth of increases.Oliver introduced some non-financial measures of success two years ago.20082009Number of complaints1246Number of male client visits03,425Number of female client visits8,0006,800Number of specialist hairdressers for female clients45Number of specialist hairdressers for male clients014Required:(a)Calculate the average price for hair services per male and female client for each of the years 2008 and 2009.(3 marks)(b)Assess the financial performance of the Salon using the data above.

The new production manager (a celebrity chef) has argued that the business should use only organic ingredients in its cake production. Organic ingredients are more expensive but should produce a product with an improved flavour and give health benefits for the customers. It was hoped that this would stimulate demand and enable an immediate price increase for the cakes.Crumbly Cakes operates a responsibility based standard costing system which allocates variances to specific individuals. The individual managers are paid a bonus only when net favourable variances are allocated to them.The new organic cake production approach was adopted at the start of March 2009, following a decision by the new production manager.

The store has previously only opened for six days per week for the 50 working weeks in the year, but B&P is now considering also opening on Sundays.The sales of the business on Monday through to Saturday averages at $10,000 per day with average gross profit of 70% earned.B&P expects that the gross profit % earned on a Sunday will be 20 percentage points lower than the average earned on the other days in the week. This is because they plan to offer substantial discounts and promotions on a Sunday to attract customers. Given the price reduction, Sunday sales revenues are expected to be 60% more than the average daily sales revenues for the other days. These Sunday sales estimates are for new customers only, with no allowance being made for those customers that may transfer from other days.B&P buys all its goods from one supplier. This supplier gives a 5% discount on all purchases if annual spend exceeds $1,000,000.It has been agreed to pay time and a half to sales assistants that work on Sundays. The normal hourly rate is $20 per hour. In total five sales assistants will be needed for the six hours that the store will be open on a Sunday. They will also be able to take a half-day off (four hours) during the week. Staffing levels will be allowed to reduce slightly during the week to avoid extra costs being incurred.The staff will have to be supervised by a manager, currently employed by the company and paid an annual salary of $80,000. If he works on a Sunday he will take the equivalent time off during the week when the assistant manager is available to cover for him at no extra cost to B&P. He will also be paid a bonus of 1% of the extra sales generated on the Sunday project.The store will have to be lit at a cost of $30 per hour and heated at a cost of $45 per hour. The heating will come on two hours before the store opens in the 25 ‘winter’ weeks to make sure it is warm enough for customers to come in at opening time. The store is not heated in the other weeksThe rent of the store amounts to $420,000 per annum.Required:(a)Calculate whether the Sunday opening incremental revenue exceeds the incremental costs over a year (ignoreinventory movements) and on this basis reach a conclusion as to whether Sunday opening is financially justifiable.(12 marks)(b)Discuss whether the manager’s pay deal (time off and bonus) is likely to motivate him.(4 marks)(c)Briefly discuss whether offering substantial price discounts and promotions on Sunday is a good suggestion.(4 marks)(20 marks)85Northland’s major towns and cities are maintained by local government organisations (LGO), which are funded by central government. The LGOs submit a budget each year which forms the basis of the funds received.You are provided with the following information as part of the 2010 budget preparation.OverheadsOverhead costs are budgeted on an incremental basis, taking the previous year’s actual expenditure and adding a set % to allow for inflation.

F5 真题1 ALL FIVE questions are compulsory and MUST be attempted 1 Carad Co is an electronics company which makes two types of televisions - plasma screen TVs and LCD TVs. It operates within a highly competitive market and is constantly under pressure to reduce prices. Carad Co operates a standard costing system and performs a detailed variance analysis of both products on a monthly basis. Extracts from the management information for the month of November are shown below:
Note Total number of units made and sold 1,400 1 Material price variance $28,000 A 2 Total labour variance $6,050 A 3 Notes (1)The budgeted total sales volume for TVs was 1,180 units,consisting of an equal mix of plasma screen TVs and LCD screen TVs. Actual sales volume was 750 plasma TVs and 650 LCD TVs. Standard sales prices are $350 per unit for the plasma TVs and $300 per unit for the LCD TVs.The actual sales prices achieved during November were $330 per unit for plasma TVs and $290 per unit for LCD TVs. The standard contributions for plasma TVs and LCD TVs are $190 and $180 per unit respectively.
(2)The sole reason for this variance was an increase in the purchase price of one of its key components, X. Each plasma TV made and each LCD TV made requires one unit of component X,for which Carad Co's standard cost is $60 per unit. Due to a shortage of components in the market place,the market price for November went up to $85 per unit for X. Carad Co actually paid $80 per unit for it.
(3)Each plasma TV uses 2 standard hours of labour and each LCD TV uses 1·5 standard hours of labour.The standard cost for labour is $14 per hour and this also reflects the actual cost per labour hour for the company's permanent staff in November. However,because of the increase in sales and production volumes in November,the company also had to use additional temporary labour at the higher cost of $18 per hour.The total capacity of Carad’s permanent workforce is 2,200 hours production per month,assuming full efficiency.In the month of November,the permanent workforce were wholly efficient,taking exactly 2 hours to complete each plasma TV and exactly 1·5 hours to produce each LCD TV.The total labour variance therefore relates solely to the temporary workers,who took twice as long as the permanent workers to complete their production.
Required: (a)Calculate the following for the month of November,showing all workings clearly: (i)The sales price variance and sales volume contribution variance; (6 marks) (ii)The material price planning variance and material price operational variance; (2 marks)
(iii)The labour rate variance and the labour efficiency variance. (7 marks) (b)Explain the reasons why Carad Co would be interested in the material price planning variance and the material price operational variance. (5 marks)
