Check my work Miller Toy Company manufactures a plastic swimming pool at its Westwood Plant. The plant has been experiencing problems as shown by its June contribution format income statement below: Flexible Budget Actual Sales (5,000 pools) $ 272,000 $ 272,000 Variable expenses: Variable cost of goods sold* 84,250 99,765 Variable selling expenses 23,000 23,000 Total variable expenses 107,250 122,765 Contribution margin 164,750 149,235 Fixed expenses: Manufacturing overhead 64,000 64,000 Selling and administrative 89,000 89,000 Total fixed expenses 153,000 153,000 Net operating income (loss) $ 11,750 $ (3,765) * Contains direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead. Janet Dunn, who has just been appointed general manager of the Westwood Plant, has been given instructions to “get things under control.” Upon reviewing the plant's income statement, Ms. Dunn has concluded that the major problem lies in the variable cost of goods sold. She has been provided with the following standard cost per swimming pool: Standard
Janet Dunn, who has just been appointed general manager of the Westwood Plant, has been given instructions to “get things under control.” Upon reviewing the plant's income statement, Ms. Dunn has concluded that the major problem lies in the variable cost of goods sold. She has been provided with the following standard cost per swimming pool: Standard Quantity or Hours 3.9 pounds 0.8 hours 0.2 hours* Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Total standard cost per unit *Based on machine-hours. Standard Price or Rate $ 2.50 per pound $ 8.00 per hour $ 3.50 per hour Standard Cost $ 9.75 6.40 0.70 $ 16.85 During June the plant produced 5,000 pools and incurred the following costs: a. Purchased 24,500 pounds of materials at a cost of $2.95 per pound. b. Used 19,300 pounds of materials in production. (Finished goods and work in process inventories are insignificant and can be ignored.) c. Worked 4,600 direct labor-hours at a cost of $7.70 per hour. d. Incurred variable manufacturing overhead cost totaling $5,070 for the month. A total of 1,300 machine-hours was recorded. It is the company's policy to close all variances to cost of goods sold on a monthly basis.
