In June the company produced 4,300 units using 16,950 grams of the direct material and 2,470 direct labor-hours. During the month the company purchased 24,200 grams of the direct material at a price of $8.80 per gram. The actual direct labor rate was $16.60 per hour and the actual variable overhead rate was $2.90 per hour. The materials price variance is computed when materials are purchased. Variable overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor-hours.


Compute the following variances for raw materials, direct labor, and variable overhead, assuming that the price variance for materials is recognized at point of purchase: (Input all amounts as positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations. Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Omit the "$" sign in your response.)
