B) Quantity 4,630.5 U

C) Total 11.710,5‬ U

Explanation:

DIRECT MATERIALS VARIANCES

$(standard\:cost-actual\:cost) \times actual \: quantity= DM \: price \: variance$

std cost $3.45

actual cost $3.65

quantity 35,400

difference $(0.20)

$(0.2) \times 35,400 = DM \: price \: variance$

price variance $(7,080.00)

$(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance$

std quantity 36110.00

actual quantity 35400.00

std cost $3.45

difference 710.00

$(710) \times 3.45 = DM \: quantity \: variance$

quantity variance $2,449.50
