a$.$ Determine the standard cost per unit for direct materials and direct labor. Round the cost per unit to two decimal places.

Direct materials standard cost per unit

Direct labor standard cost per unit

Total standard cost per unit

b$.$ Determine the direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total direct materlals cost variance. Round your answers to the nearest whole dollar. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
