Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The actual quantity of direct materials purchased 20,000 pounds.

standard price of direct materials $ 7.00 per pound.

Material price variance $ 5,000 Unfavorable.

Material quantity variance S 2,500 Favorable.

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

-5,000= (7 - AP)*20,000

5,000= 140,000 - 20,000AP

20,000= 145,000AP

Actual price= 7.25
