Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (5.9 - 5.65)*26,600

Direct material price variance= $6,650 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (7,300*3.6 - 26,600)*5.9

Direct material quantity variance= $1,888 unfavorable
