After analysing, it was found that out of 25,000 unit, 5,000 units were purchased as an emergency
order at higher rate @ ` 20.
Solution:
Material Price Variance = (S.P. A.P.) A.S.
= (10 12) 20,000 + (10 12) 5,000
= ` 50,000 (A)
Material Usage Variance = Excess price variance due to emergency order + (S.Q. A.Q.) S.P.
= (12 20) 5,000 + (18,000 25,000) 10
= ` 1,10,000 (A)

Question 2: A manufacturing concern which has adopted standard costing furnishes following
information:
Standard Material for 70 kg of Finished Products 100 kg
Price of Materials ` 1 per Kg
Actual: Output 2,10,000 Kg
Materials used 2,80,000 Kg
Cost of materials ` 2,52,000
Calculate (a) Material Usage Variance (b) Material Price Variance (c) Material Cost Variance.
Solution:
Data for Material Variance (2,10,000 kg)
Standard (Output 2,10,000 kg) Actual (Output 2,10,000 kg)
Qty. Rate Amount (`) Qty. Rate Amount (`)
3,00,000 kg 1 3,00,000 2,80,000 0.90 2,52,000
Statement of Variance
Sl. No. Particulars Basis Amount (`)
1. Material Usage Variance (Std.Qty. A.Qty.) S.P. 20,000 Favourable
