Direct materials price variance is $500, and Direct labour rate is $3,000.

Direct material price is the cost of the raw materials and components used to create a product. The materials must be easily identifiable with the resulting product otherwise they are considered to be joint costs.

A Consider the data provided to compute the price and quantity variances for

direct materials in the following manner:

Standard price = $1.50 per micron

Standard quantity = 3,000 toys x 6 microns =18,000

Actual price = $1.48 per micron

Actual quantity = 25,000 microns

Actual quantity used = (25.000-5.000) microns = 20,000 microns

   Direct materials price variance

Actual quantity « (Standard price — Actual price)

25,000 microns x($1.50-$1.48)

$500 (Favorable)

Direct materials quantity variance = Standard price » (Standard quantity — Actual quantity)

$1.50x(18,000-20,000 microns)

-$3,000( Unfavorable)

Therefore, the price and quantity variances for direct materials is 500(Favorable),

and $3,000(Unfavorable) respectively.
