The price variance might result from use of cheaper but inferior quality materials hence though it will be cheaper , the final product will be compromised .
No, the volume variance is controllable but not related to spending. The volume variance calculates the dollar impact of producing more or less than the budgeted production volume. No, the volume variance is controllable but not related to spending. The volume variance calculates the dollar impact of producing more or less than the budgeted production volume.
Fixed overhead budgeted variance is the difference between estimated budgeted cost and actual fixed overhead cost of production.
Efficiency Varian materials and direct labor, the variances were recorded in specific general ledger accounts.
Favourable variance is that variance which is good for business while unfavourable variance is bad for business
A favorable direct materials efficiency variance indicates that you are using less material in production than was budgeted for.
Receiving can affect direct materials price variances if there is no inventory. The accounting department will mark up prices to reflect a shortage.

Some causes of direct material quantity variance are poor quality materials, untrained workers, and lack of supervision. Production managers should look at and determine the causes.
The material cost variance denoting the difference between the standard cost of materials and actual cost of matrials. The material cost variance is between the standard material cost for actual production in units and actual cost. The total cost is usually determined by two differenct factors of influence viz quantity of materials utilized/ required and price of the materials. The fluctuations in the material cost are only due to the fluctuations in the utility of materials due to many factors. Material cost variance can be computed into two different ways: DIRECT METHOD AND INDIRECT METHOD material cost variance= Standard cost of materials for actual output- actual cost of raw materials. MCV=(S Q AO X SP)-(AQ X AP) Indirect Method: material cost variance= Material price variance (MPV)+Material usage Variance
No, the volume variance is controllable but not related to spending. The volume variance calculates the dollar impact of producing more or less than the budgeted production volume. No, the volume variance is controllable but not related to spending. The volume variance calculates the dollar impact of producing more or less than the budgeted production volume.
NO - Fixed Overhead Volume Variance
Budgetary Control concerns itself with the total costs for each department. Each variance is the responsibility of the official who is in charge of the department in which it arises. This official must then explain the cause of the variance and take to prevent its recurrence.
Fixed overhead budgeted variance is the difference between estimated budgeted cost and actual fixed overhead cost of production.
A favorable direct materials price variance may be the result of the purchase of cheaper materials that may be of inferior quality, thereby causing an inferior product. An inferior quality can also cause more spoilage and waste.
