Highland Company produces a lightweight backpack that is popular with college students. Standard variable costs relating to a single backpack are given below:

	Standard Quantity or Hours	Standard Price or Rate	Standard Cost
Direct materials	?	$6.00 per yard	$ ?
Direct labor	?	?	?
Variable manufacturing overhead	?	$2 per direct labor-hour	?
Total standard cost			$?

Overhead is applied to production on the basis of direct labor-hours. During March, 480 backpacks were manufactured and sold. Selected information relating to the months production is given below:

	Materials Used	Direct Labor	Variable Manufacturing Overhead
Total standard cost allowed*	$12,672	$4,896	$1,152
Actual costs incurred	$11,210	?	$1,174
Materials price variance	?
Materials quantity variance	$ 780 U
Labor rate variance		?
Labor efficiency variance		?
Variable overhead rate variance			?
Variable overhead efficiency variance			?

*For the month's production.

The following additional information is available for Marchs production:

Actual direct labor-hours	720
Standard overhead rate per direct labor-hour	$2.00
Difference between standard and actual cost per backpack produced during March	$0.15	F

Required:

1.	What is the standard cost of a single backpack?

2.	What was the actual cost per backpack produced during March? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

3.	How many yards of material are required at standard per backpack?

4.	What was the materials price variance for March if there were no beginning or ending inventories of materials? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).)

5.	What is the standard direct labor rate per hour?

6.	What was the labor rate variance for March? The labor efficiency variance? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance))

7.	What was the variable overhead rate variance for March? The variable overhead efficiency variance? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance))

8.	Prepare a standard cost card for one backpack. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
