The direct material variance is the difference between the standard cost of materials resulting from production activities and the actual costs incurred. The direct material variance is comprised of two other variances, which are:

- Purchase price variance

- Material yield variance

Purchase price variance. The difference for an item or service between the amount per unit actually paid and the budgeted amount per unit multiplied by the number of units bought.

Purchase price variance=(actual price - standard price)*actual units bought

In this exercise:

Standard price= $13,5 pound

Actual units=10760

Actual price=76640/10760= $7,12

Purchase price variance=(7,12-13,5)*10760=$68648,8 favorable
