Tax rate = $850,000/$411,000,000*100

Tax rate = 0.0020681265206813 * 100

<u>To calculate the actual quantity used in production, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

-5,000 = (24,000 - actual quantity)*5

-5,000 = 120,000 - 5actual quantity

125,000/5 = actual quantity

25,000 = actual quantity
