Standard gross margin increased by $2,050 because of a $4 per unit higher margin on Product A; but a
shift in product mix toward lower-margin Product B more than eliminated this gain. The production cost
variances are self-explanatory, except for the overhead volume variance; this $356 represents the amount
our predetermined standard overhead cost per unit overcharged products for overhead, because our
planned overhead was $1.20 per direct labor dollar, but our actual overhead was way overspent ($40,304).
(Some students will offer details on the other production cost variances, which is fine.)

There are two mistakes students frequently make in this analysis. First, some forget to change the order of
subtraction in the gross margin mix variance formula with the result that they show a favorable mix
variance. A little discussion quickly reveals why it must be unfavorable, and reminds them again that
whether a variance is favorable or unfavorable should be a matter of common sense (Will the
phenomenon described tend to increase or decrease profit?) rather than algebraic sign. Second, some
students calculate the mix variance this way

Y:

Since 5,940 + 3,960 = 9,900 rather than 10,000, this approach changes both the mix and the quantity
between the terms in parentheses. Thus, this would give a combined mix and usage variance; note that in
the correct calculation, the sum of the mix and usage variance is in fact $520 unfavorable.
Delta Division
Gross margin variances:
Budgeted unit margin, A = $300 - ($72 + $62.50 + $75) = $90.50
Budgeted unit margin, B = $185 - ($54 + $37.50 + $45) = $48.50
Actual unit margin, A = ($533,750 / 1,750) - $209.50 = $95.50
Actual unit margin, B = ($601,250 / 3,250) - $136.50 = $48.50
Sales volume variance: $0. This can be determined by inspection because both actual and
budgeted total volumes were 5,000 units.
Mix variance:
A: (1,750 -1,900) * $90.50
B: (3,250 - 3,100) * $48.50
Unit margin variance:
A: ($95.50 - $90.50) * 1,750
B: (by inspection)
