Zaino Corporation manufactures one product. It does not maintain any beginning or ending Work in Process inventories. The company uses a standard cost system in which inventories are recorded at their standard costs and any variances are closed directly to Cost of Goods Sold. There is no variable manufacturing overhead. The standard cost card for the company's only product is as follows:

There is no variable manufacturing overhead. The standard cost card for the company's only product is as follows: The company calculated the following variances for the year: The standard fixed manufacturing overhead rate was based on budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead of $48,750 and budgeted activity of 7,500 hours. During the year, the company completed the following transactions: a. Purchased 45,600 gallons of raw material at a price of $4.90 per gallon.b. Used 40,220 gallons of the raw material to produce 23,600 units of work in process.c. Assigned direct labor costs to work in process. The direct labor workers (who were paid in cash) worked 12,400 hours at an average cost of $21.70 per hour.d. Applied fixed overhead to the 23,600 units in work in process inventory using the predetermined overhead rate multiplied by the number of direct labor-hours allowed. Actual fixed overhead costs for the year were $34,050. Of this total, −$23,950 related to items such as insurance, utilities, and indirect labor salaries that were all paid in cash and $58,000 related to depreciation of manufacturing equipment.e.

1. & 2. The explanations for transactions a through i are as follows:a. Cash decreases by the actual cost of the raw materials purchased, which is Actual quantity × Average price = 45,600 gallons × $4.90 per gallon = $223,440. Raw Materials increase by the standard cost of the raw materials purchased, which is Actual quantity × Standard price = 45,600 gallons × $5.50 per gallon = $250,800. The materials price variance is $27,360 Favorable.b. Raw Materials decrease by the standard cost of the raw materials used in production, which is Actual quantity × Standard price = 40,220 gallons × $5.50 per gallon = $221,210. Work in Process increases by the standard cost of the standard quantity of raw materials allowed for the actual output, which is Standard quantity × Standard price = (23,600 units × 1.7 gallons per unit) × $5.50 per gallon = 40,120 gallons × $5.50 per gallon = $220,660. The difference is the Materials Quantity Variance which is $550 Unfavorable.c. Cash decreases by the actual amount paid to direct laborers, which is Actual hours × Actual rate = 12,400 hours × $21.70 per hour = $269,080. Work in Process increases by the standard cost of the standard amount of hours allowed for the actual output, which is Standard hours × Standard rate = (23,600 units × 0.50 hours per unit) × $21.50 per hour = 11,800 hours × $21.50 per hour = $253,700. The difference consists of the Labor Rate Variance which is $2,480 Unfavorable and the Labor Efficiency Variance which is $12,900 Unfavorable.d. Cash decreases by the actual amount paid for various fixed overhead costs, which is -$23,950. Work in Process increases by the standard amount of hours allowed for the actual output multiplied by the predetermined overhead rate, which is (23,600 units × 0.50 hours per unit) × $6.50 per hour = 11,800 hours × $6.50 per hour = $76,700. Property, Plant, and Equipment (net) decreases by the amount of depreciation for the period, which is $58,000. The difference is the Fixed Overhead (FOH) Budget Variance which is $14,700 Favorable and the Fixed Overhead (FOH) Volume Variance which is $27,950 Favorable.e. Work in Process decreases by the number of units transferred to Finished Goods multiplied by the standard cost per unit = 23,600 units × $23.35 per unit = $551,060. Finished Goods increases by the same amount.f. Cash increases by the number of units sold multiplied by the selling price per unit, which is 23,700 units × $27.20 per unit = $644,640. Retained Earnings increases by the same amount.g. Finished Goods decreases by the number of units sold multiplied by their standard cost per unit, which is 23,700 units × $23.35 per unit = $553,395. Retained Earnings decreases by the same amount.h. Cash and Retained Earnings decrease by $69,000 to record the selling and administrative expenses.i. All variance accounts take their balance to zero and they are closed to Cost of Goods Sold (which resides within Retained Earnings). The explanations for transactions a through i are as follows:a.
