Perfect Pet Collar Company makes custom leather pet collars. The company expects each collar to require 2.05 feet of leather and predicts leather will cost $3.60 per foot. Suppose Perfect Pet made 55 collars during February. For these 55 collars, the company actually averaged 2.20 feet of leather per collar and paid $3.20 per foot. Required: 1. Calculate the standard direct materials cost per unit. 2. Without performing any calculations, determine whether the direct materials price variance will be favorable or unfavorable. 3. Without performing any calculations, determine whether the direct materials quantity variance will be favorable or unfavorable. 6. Calculate the direct materials price and quantity variances.

1. $3.20 x 2.20 = $7.04

2. It will be favorable.

3. It will be unfavorable.

4. Direct material price variance = $22

   Direct material quantity variance = 0.48

Explanation:

1. Standard direct cost per unit=cost of direct materials price x direct material standard quantity per unit.

2. It will be favorable because they expected or had budgeted to pay $3.60 per foot for the material but the actual cost became $3.20. So they  pay $0.40 less than they had expected to pay.

3. It will be unfavorable because they had planed or budgeted for each unit to use 2.05 feet of leather but they ended up needing 2.20 feet of leather per collar so that means they under budgeted by 0.15 feet.

4. Direct material price variance =( $3.60 x 55) less ($3.20x55)=$22

The total amount that was budgeted or expected to be paid is subtracted from the total actual  price that was paid.

Direct material quantity variance = (2.05x$3.20) less (2.20x$3.20)= -0.48

The total direct material quantity that is used is subtracted from the quantity that was expected to be used.

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.

forbearance of student loan payments. under forbearance, your loan payments are postponed (or reduced) but interest continues to accrue during the period of forbearance. if you don't pay the interest during that period, the interest may be “capitalized,” which means it is added to your principal balance.
