Chapter 10 Standard Costs and the Balanced Scorecard

True/False 1. F Easy

Standard costs should generally be based on the actual costs of prior periods.

2. F Easy

The standard direct labor rate should not include fringe benefits.

3. F Medium

From a standpoint of cost control, the most effective time to recognize material price variances is when the materials are placed into production.

4. F Medium

The material quantity variance is computed based on the quantity of all materials purchased during the period.

5. F Medium

Purchase of poor quality materials will generally result in a favorable materials price variance and an unfavorable labor rate variance.

6. T Easy

A balanced scorecard is an integrated set of performance measures that support management's strategy throughout the organization.

7. F Medium

The performance measures on a balanced scorecard tend to fall into four groups: financial measures, customer measures, internal business process measures, and external business process measures.

8. T Easy

The emphasis in the balanced scorecard is on improvement rather than meeting a preset standard.

9. F Medium

A balanced scorecard should contain every performance measure that can be expected to influence a company's profits.

10. T Easy

Process Time is the only value-added component of Throughput Time.

P45 During the past month, the company purchased 7,000 pounds of direct materials at a cost of P26,250. All of this material was used in the production of 1,300 units of product. Direct labor cost totaled P55,125 for the month. The following variances have been computed: Materials price variance ....... P1,750 F Total materials variance ....... P250 U Labor efficiency variance ...... P6,000 F Required: a. For direct materials, compute the standard price per pound, the standard quantity allowed for materials in total for the month's production, and the standard quantity per unit of product. b. For direct labor, compute the actual direct labor cost per hour for the month and the labor rate variance. Answer: a. The actual cost of material per pound for the month was: P26,500  7,000 pounds = P3.75 per pound. AQ (AP - SP) = Materials Price Variance 7,000 pounds (P3.75 - SP) = P1,750 F P26,250 - 7,000 SP = P1,750 F 7,000 SP = P28,000 SP = P4.00 SP (AQ - SQ) = Materials Quantity Variance P4.00(7,000 lbs. - SQ) = P2,000 U P28,000 - P4.00 SQ = P2,000 U P4.00 SQ = P26,000 SQ = 6,500 lbs. 6,500 lbs.  1,300 units = 5 lbs. per unit.

Answer: Labor rate variance = (AH x AR) - (AH x SR) = P80,385 – (6,900 x P11.50) = P1,035 U SH = Standard hours per unit x Actual output = 2.8 x 2,300 = 6,440 Labor efficiency variance = SR(AH - SH) = P11.50(6,900 – 6,440) = P5,290 U

Required: a. What is the variable overhead spending variance for the month? b. What is the variable overhead efficiency variance for the month? Answer: Variable overhead spending variance = (AH x AR) - (AH x SR) = P97,600 – (6,100 x P15.80) = P1,220 U SH = Standard hours per unit x Actual output = 6.9 x 800 = 5,520 Variable overhead efficiency variance = SR(AH - SH) = P15.80(6,100 – 5,520) = P9,164 U
