Question

Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances At the beginning of June, Kimber Toy Company budgeted 13,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $19,500 Direct labor 11,830 Total $31,330 The standard materials price is $0.50 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $13.00 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: $18,200 Actual direct materials Actual direct labor 11,100 Total $29,300 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Kimber Toy Company actually produced 11,800 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. Direct materials quantity variance Direct labor time variance

Answer 1

When question says there is no material price and labor rate variance then total material and labor variance is equal to material quantity variance and labor time variance

Direct material quantity variance = (19500/13000*11800)-18200 = 500 Unfavorable

Direct labor time variance = (11830/13000*11800)-11100 = 362 Unfavorable
