Expert Solution

Answer:-

Material Quantity variance = (Standard Quantity- Actual Quantity)*Standard price

                                              =(30800 grams – 28490 grams)*$4.00 per gram

                                             = $9240 Favourable

Where:-

Standard Quantity = No. of grams per unit*Actual output

                             =5.5 grams per unit *5600 units =30800 grams
