Answer #1
Standard Price per kg =$12 per kg
Standard quantity =23,500 units*5.70 kg =133,950 kg
Actual Price per kg =$1,548,000 / 131,000 =$11.81679389 per kg
Actual quantity =131,000 kg
Material Price variance = (Standard price - Actual Price)*Actual quantity
Material Price variance = ($12*131,000) - $1,548,000 =$24,000(Favourable)
Material quantity variance = Standard price(Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)
Material quantity variance = $12*(133,950 kg - 131,000 kg) =$35,400(Favourable)
