Problem Three
The SCU uses a flexible budget and standard costs to aid planning and control of its machining
manufacturing operations. Its costing system for manufacturing has two direct-cost categories (direct
materials and direct manufacturing labor—both variable) and two overhead-cost categories (variable
manufacturing overhead and fixed manufacturing overhead, both allocated using direct manufacturing
labor-hours). At the 50,000 budgeted direct manufacturing labor-hour level for August, budgeted direct
manufacturing labor is $1,250,000, budgeted variable manufacturing overhead is $500,000, and budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $1,000,000. The following actual results are for August:

The standard cost per pound of direct materials is $11.50. The standard allowance is 6 pounds of direct
materials for each unit of product. During August, 20,000 units of product were produced. There was no beginning inventory of direct materials. There was no beginning or ending work in process. In August, the direct materials price variance was $1.10 per pound. In July, labor unrest caused a major slowdown in the pace of production, resulting in an unfavorable direct manufacturing labor efficiency variance of $40,000.There was no direct manufacturing labor price variance. Labor unrest persisted into August. Some workers quit. Their replacements had to be hired at higher wage rates, which had to be extended to all workers. The actual average wage rate in August exceeded the standard average wage rate by $0.50 per hour.
