The following statements relate to the materials mix variance:?

(i) A favourable total mix variance would suggest that a higher proportion of a cheaper?material is being used instead of a more expensive one.

?(ii) A favourable total mix variance will usually result in a favourable material yield?variance.?

Which of the above statements are true??

?JC Ltd mixes three materials to produce a chemical SGR. The following extract from a?standard cost card shows the materials to be used in producing 100 kg of chemical SGR:?

What is the total material mix variance??

?Product GX consists of a mix of three materials, J, K and L. The standard material cost of a?unit of GX is as follows:?

? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? $?

Material J? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 5 kg at $4 per kg? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?20?

Material L? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 3 kg at $8 per kg? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?24?

During March, 3,000 units of GX were produced, and actual usage was:?

Material J? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 13,200 kg?

Material K? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?6,500 kg?

Material L? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 9,300 kg?

What was the materials yield variance for March??

?Mr. Green makes salads. The standard plate of salad has 30 g of lettuce (L), 50 g of peppers?(P) and 80 g of beetroot (B). The standard prices of the three ingredients are $0.2/kg,?0.4/kg and 0.8/kg respectively.?

Mr. Green has been experimenting and so in July he changed the mix of vegetables on the?plate thus: 1,500 plates contained 62,000 grams of lettuce, 81,000 grams of peppers and?102,000 grams of beetroot.?

?The materials mix variance is calculated as the difference between the standard/actual total quantity used?in the standard/actual mix and the standard/actual quantities used in the standard/actual mix, valued at?standard/actual costs.?

?Choose the appropriate words from those highlighted.??

The materials yield variance is calculated on the difference between the standard/actual input for?standard/actual output, and the standard/actual total quantity input (in the standard/actual mix), valued?at standard/actual costs.?

The sales mix variance is calculated as the difference between the standard/actual quantity sold in the?standard/actual mix and the standard/actual quantity sold in the standard/actual mix, valued at?standard/actual margin per unit.?

Choose the appropriate words from those highlighted?

The sales quantity variance is calculated as the difference between the standard/actual sales volume in the?budgeted proportions and the budgeted sales volumes, multiplied by the standard/actual margin.?
