Kimm Company has gathered the following information about its product.

Direct materials: Each unit of product contains 3.10 pounds of materials. The average waste and spoilage per unit produced under normal conditions is 0.50 pounds. Materials cost $3 per pound, but Kimm always takes the 4.94% cash discount all of its suppliers offer. Freight costs average $0.40 per pound.

Direct labor. Each unit requires 1.40 hours of labor. Setup, cleanup, and downtime average 0.23 hours per unit. The average hourly pay rate of Kimm’s employees is $10.40. Payroll taxes and fringe benefits are an additional $3.30 per hour.

Manufacturing overhead. Overhead is applied at a rate of $5.30 per direct labor hour.

Compute Kimm’s total standard cost per unit. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.25.)

(b) Compute the labor price and quantity variances.

Costello Corporation manufactures a single product. The standard cost per unit of product is shown below.

Direct materials—3 pound plastic at $6.78 per pound   $ 20.34
Direct labor—1.00 hours at $11.00 per hour   11.00
Variable manufacturing overhead   5.50
Fixed manufacturing overhead   6.50
Total standard cost per unit   $43.34

The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $12 per direct labor hour ($12.00 ÷ 1.00). It was computed from a master manufacturing overhead budget based on normal production of 5,900 direct labor hours (5,900 units) for the month. The master budget showed total variable costs of $32,450 ($5.50 per hour) and total fixed overhead costs of $38,350 ($6.50 per hour). Actual costs for October in producing 4,200 units were as follows.

Direct materials (12,740 pounds)   $ 89,307
Direct labor (4,030 hours)   45,297
Variable overhead   35,429
Fixed overhead   16,971
    Total manufacturing costs   $187,004

The purchasing department buys the quantities of raw materials that are expected to be used in production each month. Raw materials inventories, therefore, can be ignored.
