Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials standard (4 lbs. $2 per lb.)= $8 per finished unit
Actual direct materials used (AQ)= 300,000
Actual finished units produced= 60,000
Actual cost of direct materials used= $535,000
<u>To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:</u>
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (2 - 1.783)*300,000
Direct material price variance= $65,100 favorable
Actual price= 535,000 / 300,000= $1.783
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (4*60,000 - 300,000)*2
Direct material quantity variance= $120,000 unfavorable
