Giving the following information:
Standard cost per unit 3 pounds at $2 per unit
Actual cost per unit 2.5 pounds at $3 per unit
During the month, 5,000 pounds of raw materials were purchased.
<u>To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Answer:
A. AD curve shifts rightward, increasing real GDP and raising the price level.
Explanation:
Federal funds rate can be defined as the interest rates bank charge other banks on loans of reserves and it is a monetary policy instrument.
If the Fed lowers the federal funds rate, eventually the Aggregate Demand (AD) curve shifts rightward, increasing real Gross Domestic Products (GDP) and raising the price level.
However, raising the federal funds rate, eventually causes the
Aggregate Demand (AD) curve to shift leftward and real Gross Domestic Products (GDP) decreases.
