Its materials quantity variance for April was $5,000 Favorable. What does the company use as a standard price per yard of material for its safety suits

Respuesta :

Answer:

$6.25 per yard

Explanation:

The computation of the standard price per yard of material for its safety suits is shown below:

Material quantity variance = Standard Price × (Actual quantity - Standard quantity)

-$5,000 = Standard price × (10,000 - 10,800)    

Standard price  = -$5,000 ÷ (-800)  

= $6.25 per yard

Hence, the standard price per yard of material for its safety suits is $6.25 per yard
