PART A:-
(a) Break even point in units = Fixed Cost / (Sales price per unit - Variable cost per unit)
= RM 440,000 / (RM 40 - RM 18)
= 20,000 units
(b) Contribution margin = Sales price per unit - Variable cost per unit = RM 40 - RM 18 = RM 22
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sales price per unit = RM 22 / RM 40 = 55%
Break even point in RM = RM 440,000 / 55% = RM 800,000
(c) Margin of safety percentage = (Actual sales - Break even sales) / Actual sales * 100
= (RM 1,000,000 - RM 800,000) / RM 1,000,000 * 100
= 20%
(d) Contribution margin = Sales - Variable cost
We also know that, Contribution margin = Fixed cost + Profit
= RM 440,000 + RM 330,000 = RM 770,000
Contribution margin = Contribution margin per unit * Unit sales
Contribution margin per unit * Unit sales = Fixed cost + Profit
Unit sales = Fixed cost + Profit / Contribution margin per unit
= RM 770,000 / (RM 40 - RM 18) = 35000 units
Required sales in RM = 35000 * RM 40 = RM 1,400,000
PART B:-
(i) Actual quantity = 4300 pounds
Actual price = RM 15 per pound
Actual cost = Actual quantity * Actual price = 4300 * 15 = RM 64,500
Standard price = RM 16
Standard cost = Actual quantity * Standard Price = 4300 * 16 = RM 68,800
Material Price Variance = Actual Cost - Standard Cost
= RM 64,500 - RM 68,800
= RM 4300 Favorable
(ii) Material quantity Variance = Standard Price * ( Standard quantity - Actual quantity)
= RM 16 * ( 4000 - 4300 )
= - RM 4800 Adverse
(iii) Labor Price Variance = ( Standard rate - Actual rate) * Actual hours
= ( 30 - 30.5 ) * 6400
= -RM 3200 Adverse
(iv) Labor quantity Variance = Standard rate * ( Standard hours - Actual hours)
= 30 * [ 6000(4000 * 1.5) - 6400]
= - RM 12,000 Adverse

1. Prepare the following variance analyses for
both chocolates and the total, based on the actual results and
production levels at the end of the budget year:
a. Direct materials price
variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total
variance.
b. Direct labor rate variance,
direct labor time variance, and total variance.
Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus
sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
