14 views4 pages

Document Summary

Can split the flexible budget variance for dm into two variances: a price variance and a quantity variances. Direct materials variances (2 of 3) if dm purchased equals dm used. Direct materials price variance: how much of the variance is due to paying a higher or lower price than expected for dm purchased (aq x ap) (aq x sp) Direct materials quantity variance: how much of the total variance is due to using a larger or smaller quantity of dm than expected (aq x sp) (sqa x sp) Computing dm variances when the quantity purchased differs from the quantity used. Dm price variance will be based on the quantity of dm purchased (aqp). Dm quantity variance will be based on the quantity of dm used (aqu). Dm price and quantity variances will no longer sum (or net) to the total flexible budget variance.
