a.Materials price variance = (AQ \(\times\) AP)- (AQ \(\times\) SP) = $100,500 - (6,700 pounds \(\times\) $15.50 per pound) = $100,500 - $103,850 = $3,350 F b.SQ = 920 units \(\times\) 6.3 pounds per unit = 5,796 pounds Materials quantity variance = (AQ - SQ)SP = (6,400 pounds - 5,796 pounds)$15.50 per pound = (604 pounds)$15.50 per pound = $9,362 U
