Answer:

Direct material quantity variance= $6,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials 7.5 ounces $ 8.00 per ounce

Actual output 2,500 units

Raw materials used in production 19,500 ounces

To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (7.5*2,500 - 19,500)*8

Direct material quantity variance= $6,000 unfavorable
