CA 07 – STANDARD COSTING
LECTURE NOTES
Problem 1: Materials and Labor Variance Analysis
Kodak Company has established the following standards for a single unit of its main product, Selfie Camera Tripod
(Stainless Edition):
Inputs Standards
Direct materials 3 metal bars at P2 per bar
Direct labor ½ labor hour at P10 per hour
At the start of the month, the budget includes a planned production of 100 units of tripod based on normal
capacity.
At the end of the month, actual production was 120 units of tripod, which resulted to using 400 bars of
metal, purchased at a cost of P2.10 per bar.
Required:
A. How many bars must the company plan to use? (Budgeted quantity)
B. How much materials cost is included in the budget? (Budgeted cost)
5. In the following month, Kodak purchased 500 bars at a total cost of P850 while only 400 bars out of these were
used; the standard quantity allowed for the actual production was 380 bars. Determine the following:
6. During the month, a total payroll of P540 was paid to laborers, working 45 labor hours, to produce the 120 units
of Tripod. Determine the following:
The engineering staff of Robert Industrial Design estimates that 8 ounces of rubber will be required to produce a
green widget. During the most recent month, the production process used 315,000 ounces of rubber to create 35,000
green widgets, which is 9 ounces per product. Each ounce of rubber has a standard cost of 0.50. Its material yield
variance for the month is:
For 500 KG of finish of finished product, the standard material inputs required are given below:
Standard loss – 50
Standard output – 500
1,000 KG of the finished product has been actually produced during the period for which the actual quantities if
materials used and the prices paid there for are as under:
Required:
Problem 4: (Factory Overhead Variance Analysis – Two, Three, and Four Way Variance Method)
Standard factory overhead cost per unit of product: 4 hours at P3.00 per hour
CHIGGY Corporation Company uses a standard cost system for its production process and applies overhead based
on direct labor hours. The following information is available for August when Chiggy Corporation made 4,500
units:
