Direct materials used 8,500 lbs. Direct manufacturing labor 29,200 hours for $671,600 Variable manufacturing overhead $65,100 Fixed manufacturing overhead $158,000 For the month of April, compute the following variances, indicating whether each is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U): Direct materials price variance (based on purchases):
