Great Guard, which used a standard cost accounting system, manufactured 180,000 boat fenders during the year, using 1,490,000 feet of extruded vinyl purchased at $1.45 per foot. Production required 4,700 direct labor hours that cost $16.50 per hour. The materials standard was 8 feet of vinyl per fender at a standard cost of $1.55 per foot. The labor standard was 0.028 direct labor hour per fender at a standard cost of $15.00 per hour. Read the requirements. Requirement 1. Compute the price and quantity variances for direct materials. Compute the rate and efficiency variances for direct labor. (Enter the variances as positive numbers. Enter currency amounts to the nearest cent and your answers to the nearest whole dollar.
