Answer:

(a) 2,250 unfavorable

(b) $1,250 favorable

(c) $1,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

(a) Material price variance:

= Actual quantity (Standard price - actual price)

= 4,500(2.50 - 3.00)

= $2,250 unfavorable

(b) Material quantity variance:

= Standard price (standard quantity - actual quantity)

= 2.50(5,000 - 4,500)

= $1,250 favorable

(c) Material cost variance:

= Standard cost - Actual cost

= 12,500 - 13,500

= $1,000 unfavorable

Material cost variance = Material price variance + Material quantity variance

                                     = 2,250 + (-1,250)

                                     = $1,000
