Saturn Industries purchased and consumed 64,000 gallons of direct material that was used in the production of 17,000 finished units of product. According to engineering specifications, each finished unit had a manufacturing standard of four gallons. If a review of Saturn's accounting records at the end of the period disclosed a material price variance of $6,400U and a material quantity variance of $2,800F, what is the actual price paid for a gallon of direct material

Answer:

The actual price = $1.08

Explanation:

The standard material price can be worked out as follows:

Step 1: Work out the standard price of material  using the material usage variance

Standard price = Material usage variance/(standard quantity of material - actual quantity)

Standard quantity of material = standard qty per unit × actual production

                                              = 4 × 17,000 =68,000

Standard price =  2,800/(68,000-64,000)= $0.7

Step 2 : Work out the Actual material price using the material price variance

Material price variance = (Standard price - Actual price )× Actual quantity of material

6,400 =  (y - 0.7) ×  17,000

6400 = 17,000y  - 11,900

17,000 y = 6,400 + 11,900

y = 18,300/17,000= 1.08

The actual price = $1.08
