Fill in the Blank QuestionFill in the blank question.A manufacturing company has budgeted production of 5,000 units for May and 4,400 units in June. Each unit requires 3 pounds of materials at a cost of $10 per pound. On May 1, there are 2,750 pounds of materials on hand. The company desires an ending materials inventory of 60% of the next month's materials requirements. The total cost of direct materials purchases for May will be $.

Masterson Company's budgeted production calls for 56,000 units in April and 52,000 units in May of a key raw material that costs $1.85 per unit. Each month's ending raw materials inventory should equal 30% of the following month's budgeted materials. The April 1 inventory for this material is 16,800 units.

Assume for a firm that budgeted production for July and August is 180 000 and 200 000 units respectively. It takes half a kilogram of direct material to make one unit of finished product. Materials inventory is maintained at 10 per cent of the next month's budgeted production needs. If the 30 June inventory of materials was 9000 kg, how many kilograms of direct material should be purchased during July?

The standard price of materials is $3.50 per pound and the standard quantity allowed for actual output is 7,000 pounds. If the actual quantity purchased and used was 6,700 pounds, and the actual price per pound was $3.40, the direct materials price variance is
