Hi again!
This might be the final question i need help on as my exam is on Tuesday!
Its from the ACCA website and the question is: Production was X units than budgeted. What is X?
Information given is
Standard cost card
Selling price - $150
Direct materials 2 kg @ $25/kg - $50
Direct labour 3 hours @ $10 per hour - $30
Fixed overhead 2 hours at $10 per hour - $20
Profit - $50
Operating System:
Budgeted profit $600,000
Sales volume variance $60,000 adv
Standard profit on actual sales $540,000
Sales price variance $20,000 fav
$560,000
Production cost variances
Material price $7,500 (F)
Material usage $8,000 (A)
Labour rate $2,000 (A)
Labour efficiency $500 (F)
Fixed overhead expenditure $7,000 (A)
Fixed overhead volume $2,000 (A)
Actual profit $549,000
I have worked out budgeted sales to be 12,000 units. I think actually sold is 10,800.

And yes, since the sales volume variance is 60,000 (adv) they actually sold 60,000 / 50 = 1,200 less then budget, which is 10,800.
Good luck in your exam :-)
