9.
Plasticraft Company produces and sells a single product called a
DROID. Plasticraft has excess capacity to manufacture 5,000 additional
DROIDS. Variable costs are $35 per unit, and fixed costs total $300,000 per
month. Ajax Company has offered to pay Plasticraft $39 per unit for a onetime special order for 4,000 DROIDS. This special order requires some
additional selling expenses of $1.50 per unit. Should Plasticraft accept this
special order?
YES: PLASTICRAFT SHOULD ACCEPT AJAX COMPANY’S OFFER
BECAUSE IT WILL INCREASE OPERATING INCOME BY
$10,000 = ($39 – ($35 + $1.50) * 4,000 UNITS.
OR: BECAUSE INCREMENTAL REVENUE OF $39 > INCREMENTAL
COSTS OF $36.50.

11.
Charlie’s Chairs manufactures 2 models of chairs, Standard and

Model and 70 units of the Premium Model. Only 420 machine hours are
available per week. The following per unit data apply:
Standard

b.) To maximize weekly production profits, how many units would you
recommend of each model?
Standard: 120 units * 2MH = 240 MH
Premium: 70 units * 3MH = 210 MH
450 MH
Available Capacity = 420MH vs. Required Hours = 450MH
To maximize profits, Charlie’s should maximize sales of standard
chairs. 240 machine hours should be used to manufacture 120 units of
the Standard Chair, and 180 machine hours should be used to
manufacture 60 units of the Premium Chair
4
c.) If there are 500 machine hours available per week (instead of only
420 MH), how many chairs of each model should Charlie’s produce to
maximize profits.?
500 Machine Hours results in excess capacity. Therefore, demand for
both types of chairs can be met:
120 units of Standard Chair
70 units of the Premium Chair

Chapter 12: Variance Analysis
1. Madzinga’s Draperies manufactures curtains. Each window requires the
following:
Direct materials, standards
Direct labor, standards
10 square yards at $5 per yard
5 hours at $10 per hour
During the second quarter, the company made 1,500 curtains and used
14,000 square yards of fabric costing $68,600. Direct labor totaled 7,600
hours for $79,800.
a.
b.
Compute the direct materials price and efficiency variances for the
quarter.
Actual Unit Costs:
= $68,600 / 14,000 square yards
= $4.90 per square yard
Price Variance
(AP – SP) * AQ
= ($4.90 - $5.00) * 14,000
= $1,400 F
Usage Variance
(AQ – SQ) * SP
= [14,000 – (10 * 1,500)] * $5.00
= $5,000 F
Compute the direct labor price and efficiency variances for the
quarter.
Actual Labor Rate:
= $79,800 / 7,600 hours
= $10.50 per hour
Rate Variance
(AR – SR) * AH
= ($10.50 - $10.00) * 7,600
= $3,800 U
Efficiency Variance
(AH – SH) * SR
= [7,600 – (5 * 1,500)] * $10.00
= $1,000 U

2. Robb Industries Inc. (RII) developed standard costs for direct material
and direct labor. In 2004, RII estimated the following standard costs for one
of their major products, the 10-gallon plastic container.
Direct materials
Direct labor
Budgeted quantity
0.10 pounds
0.05 hours
Budgeted price
$30 per pound
$15 per hour
During June RII produced and sold 5,000 containers using 490 pounds of
direct materials at an average cost per pound of $32 and 250 direct
manufacturing labor-hours at an average wage of $15.25 per hour.
a. Calculate the direct materials price and usage variances for June.
Price Variance
(AP – SP) * AQ
= ($32 - $30) * 490
= $980 U
Usage Variance
(AQ – SQ) * SP
= [490 – (.10 * 5,000)] * $30
= $300 F
b. Calculate the direct labor rate and efficiency variances for June.
Rate Variance
(AR – SR) * AH
= ($15.25 - $15.00) * 250
= $62.50 U
Efficiency Variance
(AH – SH) * SR
= [250 – (.05 * 5,000)] * $15
= $0
