recognize the material price variance?

c. The number of raw materials actually used is more than the standard number of raw
materials usage.

materials usage.

usage, the journal entry to record the variance will include a

accompanied by an unfavorable material usage variance.

Part II: Problems

1. AMD Inc. uses standard costing to account for the production of its goods. The budget officer
developed the following standards for its production:
 9.00 per unit of direct material
 5 units of direct material per product
During 2020, the company acquired on account 2,000 units of direct material at a total cost of
P20,000. The company was able to manufacture 300 products by the end of the year 2020 by using
1400 direct materials.
1. The journal entry to record the material purchase variance will include
a. Debit to raw materials, 20,000
b. Credit to accounts payable, 18,000
c. Debit to material price variance at 2,000
d. Credit to material price variance at 2,000

2. The journal entry to record the material usage variance will include
a. Debit to work in process at P12,600
b. Credit to raw materials at P13,500
c. Credit to raw materials at P18,000
d. Credit to material usage variance at P900

2. YVD Corporation uses standard costing system. The following standards were developed:
 200 per direct labor hour
 30 direct labor hours per product
Considering the pandemic, direct labor workers were compensated at a rate of only P180 per hour.
The company was able to manufacture 300 products by the end of the year 2020, using 10,000 direct
labor hours.

1. The journal entry to record the direct labor rate variance will include a
a. Credit to accounts payable at 2,000,000

and a credit of P30,400 to accounts payable. Upon checking the purchase invoice, materials were
purchased at a price of P1.9 per unit. There were no beginning and ending raw materials inventory for
