    Coope and Sorcerer Co make product T42 in a continuous process, for which standard and actual
    quantities in month 10 were as follows.
    Standard Actual
    Price price Std cost of
    Quantity per kg Value Quantity per kg actual usage
    kg $ $ kg $ $
    Material P 40,000 2.50 100,000 34,000 2.50 85,000
    Material Q 20,000 4.00 80,000 22,000 4.00 88,000
    60,000 180,000 56,000 173,000
    Losses occur at an even rate during the processing operation and are expected to be 10% of materials
    input. So budgeted output for the month was 54,000 kg of T42 (= 60,000 kg × 90%). Actual output during
    the month was 51,300 kg of T42.
    Required
    Calculate total usage, mix and yield variances.

    If you want me to answer then you must ask in the Ask the Tutor Forum. This forum is for students to help each other.
    (I assume you have watched my free lectures on mix and yield variances?)
