Answer:

$11,700 favorable variance

Explanation:

direct materials quantity variance = SP x (AQ – SQ)

  • SP = standard price = $0.90 per pound
  • SQ = standard quantity = 6 pounds per unit x 10,000 = 60,000 pounds
  • AQ = actual quantity = 47,000 pounds (= 4.7 pounds per unit)

direct materials quantity variance = $0.90 per pound x (47,000 pounds – 60,000 pounds) = $0.9 per pound x -13,000 pounds = -$11,700 favorable variance

When the answer is negative, the variance is favorable.
