On 1 May, Gemini Textile Company began the manufacture of a new high-tech fabric known as ‘Tacsile’. The company installed a standard costing system to account for manufacturing costs. The standard costs for a unit (a metre) of Tacsile follow: Direct materials-yarn (3 kg @ $5.00 per kg) | $15.00 | Direct labour (0.5 hour at $20 per hour) | 10.00 | Manufacturing overhead (75% of direct manufacturing labour costs) | 7.50 | | ______ |
| $32.50 | | ______ |
The following information was obtained from Gemini’s records for the month of May: Extract from Gemini’s general ledger | Debit | Credit | Sales |
| $125 000 | Accounts payable control (for May’s purchases of direct materials) | $68 250 |
| Direct materials price variance | 3 250 |
| Direct materials quantity variance | 2 500 |
| Direct labour rate variance | 1 900 |
| Direct labour efficiency variance |
| 2 000 |
As a management accounting student, you are aware that the direct materials and direct labour variances recorded in the general ledger as debits are unfavourable variances and those recorded as credits are favourable variances.
The actual production for May was 4000 metres of Tacsile, and May’s actual sales were 2500 metres.
The amount shown above for direct materials price variance applies to materials purchased during May. There was no beginning inventory of raw materials on May 1.
The number of standard kilograms of direct materials that were allowed to produce the actual output was:
|
| | A) | 13 000 |
| | B) | 12 500 |
| | C) | 12 000 |
