Answer:
335.43 million gallons
Explanation:
price elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price
PED = -1.9% / 10% = -0.19, very inelastic
expected price increase $0.40
% change in price = ($3.45 - $3.05) / $3.05 = 13.11%
% change in quantity demanded:
-0.19 = D / 13.11%
D = 2.49%
quantity demanded will decrease by 2.49%, from 344 million gallons to 335.43 million gallons

= 2,200 × ($8 - ($16,720 ÷ 2,200)
= 2,200 × ($8 - 7.6)
= 2,200 × $0.4
= $880 Favorable
Therefore for computing the direct materials price variance for last month we simply applied the above formula.
