Last month 75,000 pounds of direct material were purchased and 71,000 pounds were used, if the actual purchase price per pound was $0.5 more than the standard purchase price per pound, then the material price variance was:A $2000FB $37500FC $37500UD $35500U

$37500 UD

Explanation:

Material Price Variance = Actual Quantity purchased

(Actual Price – Standard Price)

= 75,000 × $0.5= 37,500 = $37,500 unfavorable

Therefore the material price variance of $37,400 is unfavourable

$37,500

Explanation:

Materia price variance means difference between standard price and actual price.

actaul price per pound=$0.5

actual quantity=75000

Materialvprice value =Actual Quantity of material Purchased ×(actual cost - standard cost)

=75000×0.5

=$37500

∴ Material price variance=$37500

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
