Answer:
the direct material quantity variance is $5,000 favorable
Explanation:
The computation of the direct material quantity variance is shown below:
Direct material quantity variance is 
= (Actual quantity - standard quantity) × standard price 
= (9,200 pounds - 5,100 units × 2 pounds) × $5 per pound
= (9,200 pounds - 10,200 pounds) × $5 per pound
= $5,000 favorable
hence, the direct material quantity variance is $5,000 favorable

Answer:
$124,700
Explanation:
Indirect labor budgeted is $57,000
Factory supervision is $65,000
The normal capacity is 142,500
Direct labor 145,000
Therefore the flexible budget can be calculated as follows
= 57,000+65,000/142,500
= 122,000/142,500
= 0.86
0.86×145,000
= 124,700
Hence the flexible budget is $124,700
