3a)Standard material cost allowed for actual output =Actual output * SQ*SR

                           = 4000*1* 7.5

                           = 30000

flexible-budget variance of the direct materials = Actual Material cost- Standard material cost alllowed for actual output

          = 30225 -30000

          = 225 U

b)Standard manufacturing labor cost allowed for actual output = Actual output *SH*SR

            = 4000 * .30 *9

            = 10800

flexible-budget variance of the direct manufacturing labor =Actual manufacturingLabor cost - Standard manufacturing labor cost allowed for actual output

                     = 11470- 10800

                      = 670 U

C)

Standard marketing labor cost allowed for actual output = Actual output *SH*SR

                         = 4000* .50 *3

                          = 6000

flexible-budget variance of the direct marketing labor = Actual marketing labor cost- Standard marketing labor cost allowed for actual output

                 = 5880-6000

                = - 120 F (enter as 120 F if needs to be entered as positive value)

d)

price variance of the direct materials =AQ [AR-SR]

                   = 3900 [7.75 7.50 ]

                  = 3900 * .25

                 = 975 U
