Standard quantity of material per unit 5KG. Standard Price Rs 5 per KG. actual number

of units 400 units. Actual quantity 2,200KG and price of material Rs 4.80 per kg.

Calculate material price.

a) 100(F)

b) 500(A)

c) 440(F)

d) 600(F)

2 Answers

Answer :

c) 440(F)

Answer :

The standard quantity of material per unit is 5KG, so the standard quantity for 400 units would be:

Standard quantity = 5KG/unit x 400 units = 2000KG

The standard price per KG is Rs 5, so the standard material price for 2000KG would be:

Standard price = 2000KG x Rs 5/KG = Rs 10,000

The actual quantity of material used was 2,200KG and the actual price per KG was Rs 4.80. So the actual material price would be:

Actual price = 2,200KG x Rs 4.80/KG = Rs 10,560

To calculate the material price variance, we subtract the actual material price from the standard material price:

Material price variance = Standard price - Actual price

= Rs 10,000 - Rs 10,560

= Rs -560 (Favorable)

Therefore, the material price variance is Rs -560 (Favorable), which means that the actual material cost was lower than the standard material cost.

Option (c) is the correct answer: 440(F).
