Dash Company adopted a standard costing system several years ago. The standard costs for the prime costs (i.e., direct materials and direct labor) of its single product are:

Material	(8 kilograms × $6.00 per kilogram)	$	48.00

All materials are added at the beginning of processing. The following data were taken from the company’s records for November:

In-process beginning inventory			None
In-process ending inventory		900	units, 70% complete as to direct labor
Units completed		6,000	units
Budgeted output		6,400	units
Purchases of materials		54,000	kilograms
Total actual direct labor costs	$	750,000
Actual direct labor hours		45,000	hours
Materials usage variance	$	2,100	Unfavorable
Total materials variance	$	750	Unfavorable

Required:

1. Compute for November:

a. The direct labor efficiency variance. Is this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)?

b. The direct labor rate variance. Is this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)?

c. The actual number of kilograms of material used in the production process during the month.

d. The actual price paid per kilogram of material during the month, the company calculates the direct materials price variance at point of purchase.
