Actual production was 23.500 units The direct materials quantity vanance is a $63,000 favorable b. $59,400 unfavorable c. $63,000 unfavorable d. $59.400 favorable

Answer 1

Direct material quantity variance

= (Standard quantity - Actual quantity) x standard price

= (5.7 x 23500 - 129,000) x $12

= $59,400(F)

The correct answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct material quantity variance is the difference between standard quantity and actual quantity used multiplied by standard price. Standard quantity is obtained by the product of standard quantity per unit and actual production.
