Bandar Industries Berhad of Malaysia manufactures sporting equipment. One of the companys products, a football helmet for the North American market, requires a special plastic. During the quarter ending June 30, the company manufactured 3,800 helmets, using 2,546 kilograms of plastic. The plastic cost the company $19,350.

According to the standard cost card, each helmet should require 0.60 kilograms of plastic, at a cost of $8.00 per kilogram.

3. What is the materials spending variance?

4. What is the materials price variance and the materials quantity variance?
