   Actual hours for the week (40 employees 36 hours)	1,440

   Required:

   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	$fill in the blank 1
   Direct labor standard cost per unit	$fill in the blank 2
   Total standard cost per unit	$fill in the blank 3

   b. Determine the direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total direct materials 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.
