Problem $10-11($Algo$)$ Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances; Computations from Incomplete

Data $[$L$010-1,$ L$010-2]$

Sharp Company manufactures a product with the following standards:

During March, the company purchased direct materials for $$57,090,$ all of which were used in the production of $3,400$ units. In

addition, $5,200$ direct labor$-$hours were worked on the product during the month. The cost of this labor time was $$54,600.$

The following variances have been computed for the month:

Materials quantity variance $$900,U$

Labor spending variance $$3,600,U$

Labor efficiency variance $$1,000U$

Required:

For direct materials:

a$.$ Compute the actual cost per foot of materials for March.

b$.$ Compute the price variance and the spending variance.

For direct labor:

a$.$ Compute the standard direct labor rate per hour.

b$.$ Compute the standard hours allowed for the month's production.

c$.$ Compute the standard hours allowed per unit of product.
