...Chapter 12 Standard Costs and Variance Analysis Solutions to Questions 12-1 A quantity standard indicates how much of an input should be used to make a unit of output. The quantity might be measured either in terms of units of direct materials or hours of direct labour time. A price standard indicates what the cost of the input should be. 12-2 Ideal standards do not allow for any imperfections or inefficiencies. Thus, ideal standards are rarely, if ever, attained. Practical standards allow for normal inefficiency, machine breakdown time, etc., and can be attained by employees working at a reasonable, though highly efficient pace. 12-3 Inability to meet a standard is likely to be demoralising to employees, and may result in decreased productivity. 12-4 A budget is a total concept, whereas a standard is a unit concept. A standard might be viewed as the budgeted cost for one unit of product. 12-5 A variance is the difference between what was planned or expected and what was actually accomplished. In a standard cost system, there are at least two types of variances. The price variance focuses on the difference between standard and actual prices. The quantity variance is concerned with the difference between the standard quantity of input allowed for the actual output and the actual amount of the input used. 12-6 Under the management by exception approach, managers focus their attention on operating results that deviate from expectations. It is assumed that the ...

...McGraw-Hill/Irwin 2002 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Managerial Accounting, 5/e 10-1 CHAPTER 10 Standard Costing and Performance Measures for Today’s Manufacturing Environment ANSWERS TO REVIEW QUESTIONS 10-1 Management by exception is a managerial technique in which only significant deviations from expected performance are investigated. 10-2 Any control system has three basic parts: a predetermined or standard performance level, a measure of actual performance, and a comparison between standard and actual performance. The system works by making the comparison between actual and standard performance and then taking action to bring about a desired consequence. 10-3 One method of setting standards is the analysis of historical data. Historical cost data provide an indicator of future costs. The methods for analyzing cost behavior described in Chapter 7 are used to predict future costs on the basis of historical costs. These predictions then form the basis for setting standards. Another method for setting standards is task analysis, which is the analysis of a production process to determine what it should cost to produce a product or service. The emphasis shifts from what the product did cost in the past to what it should cost in the future. An example of task analysis is a time-and-motion study conducted to determine how long each step performed by direct laborers should require. 10-4 A perfection (or ideal) standard is the cost expected under perfect or...
