Explanation

Rogue11 lbs. $5.18 $5.01 $4,114 NAFU Price increase Storm17 4,700 oz. $ $3.29 $658 U Rush order Beast29 20,300 units $0.42 $ $812 F Bought larger quantity

Explanation / Answer

Purchase price variance=(Actual price - Standard price) x Actual quantity

1.Rogue11

$4,114=($5.18-$5.01)*Actual Quantity

Actual quantity*0.17=$4,114

Actual quanity=$4,114/0.17=24,200

2. storm17

$658=4,700*(Atual price-$3.29)

Actual price-$3.29=-$658/4,700=$0.14

Actual price=$0.14+$3.29=$3.43

3. Beast 29

($0.42-SP)*20,300=-$812

$0.42-SP=-$812/20,300=-$0.04

SP=$0.42+$0.04=$0.46
