Solution

To calculate the raw material purchase price variance, we need to follow these steps:

  1. First, find the actual cost of the raw material. This is done by multiplying the actual price per gallon by the number of gallons purchased. In this case, 8.25/gallon12,000gallons=8.25/gallon * 12,000 gallons = 99,000.

  2. Next, find the standard cost of the raw material. This is done by multiplying the standard price per gallon by the number of gallons purchased. In this case, 8/gallon12,000gallons=8/gallon * 12,000 gallons = 96,000.

  3. Finally, subtract the standard cost from the actual cost to find the variance. In this case, 99,00099,000 - 96,000 = $3,000.

Since the actual cost is higher than the standard cost, the variance is unfavorable. Therefore, ABC's raw material purchase price variance for January is $3,000 unfavorable.
