Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Standard Price = $5
Direct material (Actual Price) = $4.9
Actual Quantity Purchased = 28,900
Materials price variance for January:
= (Standard Price - Actual Price) × Actual Quantity Purchased
= ($5 - $4.9) × 28,900
= $2,890 (Favorable)
Therefore, the materials price variance for January is $2,890 Favorable.
