Answer:
Assuming that the capacity of the new X-ray machine is the same as the capacity of two older machines, the difference results from the number of units waiting in line (queue). You would need two different groups of workers to move the containers into the correct position if you use the two older machines, while you need only one group to move them to the new machine. This decreases lead time since coordinating work also requires time, it might be a short time, but it is more time at the end of the day.

Answer:
Direct Material Quantity Variance = $10200 Fav
Explanation:
given data
Units produced = 5600
Direct materials purchased and used (7800 lbs.) = $70,200
Budgeted production = 5300 units
Direct materials 2.0 lbs/unit = $3/lb
to find out
direct materials quantity variance
solution
we get here Direct Material Quantity Variance that is express as
Direct Material Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) × Standard Rate ......................1
so put here value we get
Direct Material Quantity Variance = ( 5600 × 2.0 - 7800 ) × 3
Direct Material Quantity Variance = (11200 - 7800 ) × 3
Direct Material Quantity Variance = $10200 Fav
