Soft Glow Candle Co. projected sales of 78,000 candles for 2010. The estimated January
1, 2010, inventory is 3,600 units, and the desired December 31, 2010, inventory is 4,500
units. What is the budgeted production (in units) for 2010?
PE 22-3A Direct materials
purchases budget
Soft Glow Candle Co. budgeted production of 78,900 candles in 2010. Wax is required
to produce a candle. Assume 8 ounces (one half of a pound) of wax is required for each
candle. The estimated January 1, 2010, wax inventory is 2,000 pounds. The desired
December 31, 2010, wax inventory is 2,400 pounds. If candle wax costs $3.20 per pound,
determine the direct materials purchases budget for 2010.
PE 22-4A Direct materials
purchases budget
Soft Glow Candle Co. budgeted production of 78,900 candles in 2010. Each candle
requires molding. Assume that 15 minutes are required to mold each candle. If molding

variances
Chapter 23 Performance Evaluation Using Variances from Standard Costs 1069
Norris Company produces a product that requires six standard pounds per unit. The
standard price is $1.25 per pound. If 500 units required 2,900 pounds, which were purchased
at $1.30 per pound, what is the direct materials (a) price variance, (b) quantity
variance, and (c) cost variance?
PE 23-2A
Direct labor variances
Norris Company produces a product that requires 3.5 standard hours per unit at a standard
hourly rate of $12 per hour. If 500 units required 1,500 hours at an hourly rate of
$11.50 per hour, what is the direct labor (a) rate variance, (b) time variance, and (c) cost
variance?

Factory overhead
controllable variance
Norris Company produced 500 units of product that required 3.5 standard hours per
unit. The standard variable overhead cost per unit is $0.70 per hour. The actual variable
factory overhead was $1,200. Determine the variable factory overhead controllable
variance.

Standard product
cost
Hickory Furniture Company manufactures unfinished oak furniture. Hickory uses a
standard cost system. The direct labor, direct materials, and factory overhead standards
for an unfinished dining room table are as follows:
Direct labor: standard rate $18.00 per hr.
standard time per unit 2.5 hrs.
Direct materials (oak): standard price $9.50 per bd. ft.
standard quantity 18 bd. ft.
Variable factory overhead: standard rate $2.80 per direct labor hr.
Fixed factory overhead: standard rate $1.20 per direct labor hr .
Determine the standard cost per dining room table.

Recording standards
in accounts
The Assembly Department produced 2,000 units of product during June. Each unit
required 1.5 standard direct labor hours. There were 3,200 actual hours used in the
Assembly Department during June at an actual rate of $14.00 per hour. The standard
direct labor rate is $15 per hour. Assuming direct labor for a month is paid on the fifth
day of the following month, journalize the direct labor in the Assembly Department on
June 30.
