Part 2

Answer

1.

Direct Material Price Variance= (Standard Price per unit- Actual Price per unit)x Actual Quantity purchased

= ($11-$11.50)x$194350/11.50

= $ 8450 Unfavorable

2.

Direct Material Quantity Variance= (Standard quantity – Actual quantity consumed unit) x Standard Price per unit

= (6.2x 2800)-(($194350/11.50)) x $11

= $ 5060 Favorable

3.

Direct Labor rate variance= (Standard labor rate per hour- actual labor rate per hour x Actual labor hours consumed

= ($23- $22.50) x ( $393750/22.50)

= $ 8750 Favorable

4.

Direct Labor rate efficiency variance= (Standard labor hours- actual labor hours) x Standard Labor rate

= ((6×2800)-($ 393750/22.50) x$23

= $16100 Unfavorable
