Expert Solution
The correct answer is Option A - $ 3080 F
The formula for direct materials quantity variance is:
DM quantity variance = (Actual Quantity - Standard Quantity) * Standard Price.
Actual Quantity = 50600 pounds
Standard Quantity = Number of Finished Goods *Standard Quantity of Pounds per Finished Goods
Standard Quantity = 13,000 units * 4 pounds
Standard Quantity = 52,000 pounds
Standard Price = $ 2.2
DM quantity variance = (50600 - 52000) * 2.2
DM quantity variance = (-1400) * 2.2
DM quantity variance = $ 3,080 (F)
