Purchase price is what the employee time costs the company to provide the service. Hourly rate plus all costs to you for that employee.Sales price is what you charge the customer for that employee time.EX.Company X buy material 1001 from Company Y.SO I must maintain a Purchase contract of material 1001 of Company X, supplier is Company Y.Meanwhile, I have to maintain a Sale Price list of material 1001 of Company Y, customer is Company X.
The equilibrium price is the price at which consumers will purchase the same quantity of a product that suppliers will produce.
The demand or quantity demanded is the amount that consumers will purchase or consume at a specific price.
A tax based on the price of goods and paid at the time of purchase is a sales tax.
Demand for insulin is inelastic because, regardless of how much the price of it increases, people with diabetes will still need it to survive and will end up paying the price for it, whether it increases $20 or $50. When the price of insulin changes, there is little or no variance in the demand of it.
Following are the causes of material price variance: 1.There could have been recent changes in purchase price of materials. 2.Price variance can be due to substituting raw materials different from the original material specification. 3.Price variance can be attributed to the non availability of cash discounts which was originally anticipated at the time of setting the price standards. 4.Changes in transportation costs and storekeeping costs can also be contributing factors to material price variance.
A favorable/unfavorable price variance does not effect your quantity variance. The reason you would see a favorable price variance and an unfavorable quantity variance is because you consumed more materials than your standard allows AND the price you paid for those material was less than your standard price. If you paid more than your standard price, you would have experienced an unfavorable variance in both quantity and price.
There are a number of reasons for causinf DM Price Variance. Adverse Price Variance 1) Demand > Supply (Low Supply, High Demand result in price to be material purchase to be more costly) 2) Change to a higher grade material quality. 3) Purchases made from oversea, exchange rate incurred 4) Purchases made in smaller quantity As for favourable DM price variance, explanation will be opposite of the above given.
Material variance should be calculated to ensure that you are setting the right price for your products. When the price varies significantly, you may need to establish a new price for the product.
may be material price is higher than the stander ed price
There are 7 variances associated with a budget ( which are generally calculated for controlling purposes) 1- Material Price variance 2- Material Quantity variance 3- Labor rate variance 4- Labor efficiency variance 5- Spending variance 6- Efficiency variance 7- Capacity variance
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
Negative price variance is when the cost is less than budgeted. Volume variance is a variance in the volume produce.
1.rise in price. if price will be higher than the budgeted price then unfavourable 2.shortage of suppliers. this led to increase in price
debit raw material purchasedcredit cashit doesn't have any impact on payment as variance is an internal matter of business.
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.
Price Variance = (Actual Price/Unit - Budgeted Price/Unit) x Actual Quantity of Output = (AP - SP) x AQ
