Ans:

1) Direct Material Price Variance=Actual Quantity*(Standard price-Actual price)

                                                      =$2,200 un favorable

Note:

Actual price = Actual Material cost/Actual Quantity

                      =$261,800/22,000

                      =$11.90

2) Direct Material Quantity Variance=Standard price*(Standard Quantity-Actual Quantity)

                                                              =$11.8*(24,500-22,000)

                                                              =$29,500 Favorable

Standard quantity=Actual production*standard quantity required per unit

                                 =4,900*5=24,500
