1. $4,600 favorable; $6,000 unfavorable and 1,400 unfavorable

2. $1,880 unfavorable; $9,600 unfavorable and $11,480 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

1. Direct material price variance

= Actual Quantity × (Standard Price - Actual Price)

= 92,000 lbs × ($3 - $2.95)

= 92,000 lbs × $0.05

= $4,600 favorable

Direct material quantity variance:

= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)

= $3 × (10 lbs × 9,000 units - 92,000 lbs)

= $3 × (90,000 lbs - 92,000 lbs)

= $3 × 2,000 lbs

= $6,000 unfavorable

And, the total direct material variance equals to

= Direct material price variance + Direct material quantity variance

= 4,600 favorable + 6,000 unfavorable

= 1,400 unfavorable

2. Direct labor rate variance

= Actual Hours × (Actual rate - standard rate)

= 37,600 hours × ($6.05 per hour - $6 per hour)

= 37,600 hours × $0.05 per hour

= $1,880 unfavorable

Direct labor efficiency variance:

= Standard Rate × (Actual hours - Standard hours)

= $6 per hour × (37,600 hours - 9,000 units × $4 hours)

= $6 per hour × 1,600 hours

= $9,600 unfavorable

And, the total labor cost variance would be

= Direct labor rate variance + Direct labor efficiency variance

= 1,880 unfavorable + $9,600 unfavorable

= $11,480 unfavorable

Answer from: Quest

the correct answer would be b, when, queen, calder hall and london.

explanation:

we always capitalize words when a paragraph or sentence is starting, when an important name is used, when a place is being written, or simply when a noun is used, etc. so in this sentence, sentence is starting from 'when', so it will be written in capital letters. secondly, queen is considered to be an important person, so it will also be written in capital letter. next, the name of the town is mentioned, i-e calder hall, which will also be written in capital letters. in the last, city name is being used, 'london', which will also be written in capital letters. so option b is the most appropriate one.
