If the standard to produce a given amount of product is 900 units of direct materials at $11 and the actual was 800 units at $12, the direct materials quantity variance was $1,100 unfavorable.

Which of the following doesn't result in an unfavorable fixed overhead volume variance?

Standards are designed to evaluate price and quantity variances separately.

The first budget to be prepared is usually the sales budget.

Financial reporting systems that are guided by the principle of exceptions concept focus attention on variances from standard costs.

The fact that workers are unable to meet a properly determined direct labor standard is sufficient cause to change the standard.

The formula to compute direct labor time variance is:

A favorable cost variance occurs when actual cost is less than budgeted cost at actual volumes.

Favorable volume variances are never harmful since achieving them encourages managers to run the factory above normal capacity.

As of January 1 of the current year, the Butner Company had accounts receivables of $50,000. Sales for January, February, and March were as follows: $120,000, $140,000, and $150,000. 20% of each month's sales are for cash. Of the remaining 80% (the credit sales) , 60% are collected in the month of sale, with the remaining 40% collected in the following month. What is the total cash collected (both from accounts receivable and for cash sales) in the month of February?
