Last quarter, RP Enterprises earned $220,000 in sales revenue and had $90,000 cost of goods sold (at standard). RP also experienced these variances: Materials price: $2,400 F Materials quantity: $1,400 U Labor price: $2,000 U Labor quantity: $1,000 F Overhead: $1,500 F

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we use actaul costs and quantity of direct labor and direct materials. Therefore, the only estimated cost is overhead.
