Standard materials cost per unit of product is 4 pounds at \($2.20\) per pound, and standard direct labor cost is 0.75 hour at \($13.60\) per hour. Total actual materials cost represents 31,500 pounds purchased at \($2.10\) per pound. Total actual labor cost represents 5,900 hours at \($13.80\) per hour. According to standards, variable overhead rate is applied at \($5.80\) per direct labor hour (based on a normal capacity of 6,000 direct labor hours or 8,000 units of product). Assume that all fixed overhead is applied to work-in-progress inventory.

b. Prepare general journal entries to record standard costs, actual costs, and related variances for materials, labor, and overhead.
