Answer:

Direct material price variance= $1,200 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard price= $8 per gallon

Last month, 3,000 gallons of direct materials were purchased for $22,800.

To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:

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

Actual price= 22,800/3,000= $7.6 per gallon

Direct material price variance= (8 - 7.6)*3,000= $1,200 favorable
