The following materials standards have been established for a particular product: Standard quantity per unit of output 5.0 meters Standard price $ 17.70 per meter The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual materials purchased 7,900 meters Actual cost of materials purchased $ 143,780 Actual materials used in production 7,400 meters Actual output 1,450 units What is the materials price variance for the month

Material price variance = $3,950 unfavorable

Explanation:

A material price variance occurs where materials are purchased at a price either lower or higher than the standard price. A favorable variance is recorded where the actual total cost of materials is lower that the standard cost. While an adverse variance implies the opposite.

                                                                                   $

7,900 meters should gave cost ( 7,900× 17.70)    139,830

but did cost                                                              143,780

Material price variance                                              3,950   Unfavorable

Material price variance = $3,950

i would have to say its c

the investment was $14,174.196

explanation:

a lump sum means that the father of the example made one deposit and leave it be.

we need to know the value of a capital that generated at 4.05% per year during 28 years the sum of $48,613.24

now clearing the formula to solve for capital we got:

and we reach the answer investment = $14,174.20
