Learning Objectives How are material, labor, and overhead standards set? How are material, labor, and overhead variances calculated and recorded? Why are standard cost systems used? How have the setting and use of standards changed over time? How does the use of a single conversion element (rather than the traditional labor and overhead elements) affect standard costing? (Appendix) How are variances affected by multiple material and labor categories?

Questions How are standards set for material, labor, and overhead? How is variance analysis used for control and performance evaluation? Why are labor and overhead elements sometimes combined into a single conversion element?

Potential Ethical Issues Setting high standards to create favorable variances Ignoring effects of one production area on another Setting overhead rates too low based on high production levels to distort inventory cost and operating income Producing inventory only to create a favorable volume variance Not updating standards so that favorable variances are created Using low quality materials or labor to create favorable variances and low quality products
