Explanation / Answer

7. Direct Material Purchase Variance = (Standard Price - Actual Price) x Actual Quantity

Standard Price = 1.80 per Pound

Actual Price = 304,000 / 160,000 = $1.90 per Pound

Actual Quantity = 160,000 pound

MPV = (1.80 - 1.90) x 160,000 = $16,000 Unfavorable

So, the correct option is $16,000 Unfavorable

8. Direct Material Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) x Standard Price

Direct Material Quantity Variance = (152,000 - 142,500) x 1.80 = $17,100 Favorable

So, the correct option is favorable $17,100.

9. Direct Labor Efficiency Variance = (Standard Hour - Actual Hour) x Standard Rate

DLH = (4,750 - 5,000) x 8 = 2,000 Unfavorable

So, the correct option is $2,000 Unfavorable.
