Bellingham Company produces a product that requires 6 standard direct labor hours per unit at a standard hourly rate of $22.00 per hour. If 4,800 units used 27,600 hours at an hourly rate of $22.44 per hour, what is the direct labor (a) rate variance, (b) time variance, and (c) cost variance? Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

(a) The direct labor rate variance is 12,144 ( Favorable).

(b) The direct labor time variance is 26,400 ( Unfavorable).

The calculation is as follows:

(a)

Rate variance = Actual hours × ( Standard rate - Actual rate)

= 27,600 × ( $22 - $22.44)

= -$12,144 ( Favorable)

(b)

Time variance = Standard rate × ( Standard hours - Actual hours)

= $22 × ( 6 × 4,800 - 27,600)

= 26,400 ( Unfavorable)

(c)

Cost variance = Time variance - rate variance

= 26,400 - 12,144

= 14,256 ( unfavorable)

Therefore we can conclude that

(a) The direct labor rate variance is 12,144 ( Favorable).

(b) The direct labor time variance is 26,400 ( Unfavorable).

Answer from: MikaB1063

The correct answer for (a) is 12,144 ( Favorable), (b) is 26,400 ( Unfavorable), and (c) is 14,256 ( unfavorable).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

(a) We can calculate the rate variance by using following formula:

Rate variance = Actual hours × ( Standard rate - Actual rate)

= 27,600 × ( $22 - $22.44)

= -$12,144 ( Favorable)

(b). We can calculate the time variance by using following formula:

Time variance = Standard rate × ( Standard hours - Actual hours)

= $22 × ( 6 × 4,800 - 27,600)

= 26,400 ( Unfavorable)

(c). We can calculate the cost variance by using following formula:

Cost variance = Time variance - rate variance

= 26,400 - 12,144

= 14,256 ( unfavorable)

(05.04 mc) a 2012 report from the u.s. surgeon general stated: "another common practice is strategically locating tobacco-related marketing materials where young children will be exposed to them. tobacco industry executives acknowledge that products and advertising should be placed at eye level (pollay 2007), but in california, 48% of stores had at least one cigarette marketing item at or below 3 feet from the floor (feighery et al. 2001)." it was also noted that 25% of cigarette displays were next to candy. in addition, a national study found that about one-third of the stores had tobacco ads at low heights. after california banned counter displays, some stores place cigarettes in transparent displays so product brands could still be seen. why did some stores use transparent units to display the cigarettes? (3 points) to comply with the new rules while still encouraging cigarette purchases via visual exposure to ensure children and minors are not exposed to cigarettes and their eye-catching packaging to minimize exposure to humidity, extending the shelf life of the cigarettes' tobacco to reduce the occurrence of shoplifting, since cigarettes are high-revenue items

Suppose that a candy maker owns a building and is renting part of the building's space to a doctor. further suppose that because the candy maker is the owner, he has the right to make noise during the day while he makes candy. while the doctor cannot insist on a quiet environment, the doctor could move to a quieter building. however, rent in the next best building is $350/month more than rent in the noisy building. the candy maker can adopt a new technology that eliminates the noise for $275/month. given this situation, can the doctor find a private solution with the candy maker that will make both better off?
