Answer:

$8,800 favourable

Explanation:

The computation of direct material quantity variance is seen below;

= Standard price × ( Standard quantity - Actual quantity)

= $4 × [(2 gallons × 7,200 units) - 12,200 gallons)

= $4 (14,400 gallons - 12,200 gallons)

= $4 × 2,200 gallons

= $8,800 favorable

Therefore, the direct materials quantity variance for last month is $8,800 favourable
