Expert Solution

a) Computation of Material Quantity Variance:

Material Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity for Actual Production - Actual Quantity)*Standard Price

= (2750*3-8700)*4.20

= 1890 Unfavourable

 

 

b) Computation of Material Price Variance:

Material Price Variance = (Standard Price - Actual Price)*Actual Units Purchased

= (4.20-4.50)*9000

= 2700 Unfavourable

 

 

c) Computation of Labour Rate Variance:

Labour Rate Variance = (Standard Rate-Actual Rate)*Actual Hours Worked

= (7.50-7.90)*7000

= 2800 Unfavourable
