Calculate Crystal Charm's direct labor rate and efficiency variances for the month of January. Indicate whether each is favorable or unfavorable.

silver

direct materials price  variance   =  $1,050 favorable

direct materials quantity  variance =  $13,200 favorable

Crystals

direct materials price  variance = $671 favorable

direct materials quantity  variance =$1,327.50 favorable

direct labor

direct materials rate variance =  $1,200 unfavorable

direct materials efficiency  variance =$2,100 favorable

Explanation:

silver

direct materials price  variance = (Aq×Ap)-(Aq×Sp)

                                                   = (350×$21,00)-(350×$24.00)

                                                   =  $1,050 favorable

direct materials quantity  variance = (Aq×Sp)-(Sq×Sp)

                                                         = (350×$24.00) -(1,500×0,60×$24.00)

                                                         = $13,200 favorable

Crystals

direct materials price  variance = (Aq×Ap)-(Aq×Sp)

                                                   = (3,050×$0,23)-(3,050×$0.45)

                                                   =  $671 favorable

direct materials quantity  variance = (Aq×Sp)-(Sq×Sp)

                                                         = (3,050×$0.45) -(1,500×4.00×$0.45)

                                                         = $1,327.50 favorable

direct labor

direct materials rate variance = (Aq×Ap)-(Aq×Sp)

                                                   = (2,400×$14,50)-(2,400×$14.00)

                                                   =  $1,200 unfavorable

direct materials efficiency  variance = (Aq×Sp)-(Sq×Sp)

                                                         = (2,400×$14.00) -(1,500×1.50×$14.00)

                                                         = $2,100 favorable
