Response to the following problem:
Surgical Products produces latex surgical gloves. Machines perform the majority of the processing for 1,000 pairs of gloves per hour. Each pair of gloves requires 0.85 square foot of latex, which has a standard price of $0.80 per square foot. Machine operators are considered direct labor and are paid $15 per hour.
During one week in May, Surgical Products produced 300,000 pairs of gloves and experienced a $1,440 unfavorable material quantity variance. The company had purchased 2,500 more square feet of material than had been used in production that week. The unfavorable material price variance for the week was $5,186. A $288 unfavorable total labor variance was generated based on 315 total actual labor hours to produce the gloves.
Determine the following amounts:
a. Standard quantity of material for production achieved
b. Actual quantity of material used
c. Actual quantity of material purchased
d. Actual price of material purchased
e. Standard hours for actual production
f. Labor efficiency variance
g. Labor rate variance
h. Actual labor rate.
