In the given case, the company is going through a rough patch financially. In such a scenario, one of it's employees is desirous of pay raise and is considering to compose and send a message for the same object.
With available facts and situation apparent to the employee, it would first realistically seek an answer to the question, whether realistically his demand would be met, given the situation.

Answer:
A. The company paid a higher cost for the direct materials than allowed by the standards.
Explanation:
The following is a logical explanation for this variance:
Since, the standard quantity of raw materials to be used is 22 pounds x 500 units = 11000 pounds. The actual usage is 9500 pounds ony. Hence, variance in direct material price variance can be only due to higher cost of direct material purchased.
Answer:
400
Explanation:
Qd = 45 - 2P
Qd = -15 + P
45 - 2P = P - 15
60 = 3P
60/3 = P = 20
Q = 45 - 2*20 = 5
Q = -15+20 = 5
The quantity will be 5 and price 20
<u>Now we will caclulate the consumer surplus:</u>
Which the area of the demand curve above the equilibrium.
We calculate he area of a triangle:
base x high / 2

consumer surplus = 400
