STANDRAD COSTING UNSOLVED QUESTIONS IN THE CLASS_Solved_Question


Question 1: The following information has been extracted from the books of Goru Enterprises which is using standard costing system:
Actual output
= 9,000 units
Direct wages paid
= 1,10,000 hours at ` 22 per hour, of which 5,000 hours, being idle time, were not recorded in production
Standard hours
= 10 hours per unit
Labour efficiency variance
= ` 3,75,000 (A)
Standard variable Overhead
= ` 150 per unit
Actual Variable Overhead
= ` 16,00,000
You are required to calculate:
           (i)  Idle time variance.
          (ii)  Total variable overhead variance.
         (iii)  Variable overhead expenditure variance.
         (iv)  Variable overhead efficiency variance.       (ICAI)
Solution:- Basic Workings
Actual Output
9,000 units
Idle Time
5,000 hrs
Production Time(Actual)
1,05,000 hrs
Standard Hours for Actual Production
90,000 hurs
(10 hours/unit X 9,000 units)

Labour efficiency variance


= 3,75,000(A)

= Std.Rate
=Standard cost of Standard Time for Actual Production – Standard Cost of Actual Time
OR
=Std. Rate X(Std. Hours –Actual Hours Worked)
=Std. Rate X (90,000 hrs – 1,05,000 hrs)
= ` 25
Standard Variable Overhead
= ` 150/umit
Standard Hours
= 10 hrs/unit
Standard Variable Overhead Rate/hr
=`150/ 10 hrs

=` 15/hr
                Computation of Requirements

(i)          Idle Time variance
= Standard Rate per Hour X actual idle Hours
=` 25 X 5,000Hrs.
= 1,25,000(A)
(ii)       Total Variable Overhead Variance
Standard Variable Overhead for Production- Actual Variable Overheads.
=`15X(10hrs X 9,000 units) -16,00,000
= ` 13,50,000 - ` 16,00,000
= ` 2,50,000(A)
(iii)     Variable Overhead Expenditure Variance
=Budgeted Overheads for Actual Hours worked –Actual variable Overheads
= `15 X 1,05,000 hrs - `16,00,000
= `15,75,000 - `16,00,000
= `25,000(A)
(iv)     Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance
=Standard Variable Overhead for output-Budgeted Overheads for Actual Hours
OR
= Standard Rate per hour X (Standard Hours for actual Output-Actual Hours Worked)
= ` 15 X (90,000 hrs – 1,05,000 hrs)
= ` 2,25,000(A)

Ø  Overheads can also be affected by idle time. IT is usually assume that overheads expenditure is incurred in active hours only.
