Answer:
$5.5= actual price
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Managers expected to pay $5 per kilogram.
Each unit produced should take 2 kilograms; actual total usage was 2,100 kilograms.
The company produced 950 units.
The direct materials spending variance is $1,050 (unfavorable).
To calculate the actual price per kilogram, we need to use the direct material spending variance.
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
-1,050= (5 - actual price)*2,100
-0.5= 5 - actual price
5.5= actual price
