At the beginning of the year, KP Company had the following standard cost sheet for one of its plastic products. KP planned to produce 2,000 units for the year. Direct materials ( 3 pounds at \( \$ 4 \) per pound) \( \$ 12.00 \) Direct labor (7 hours at \( \$ 16 \) per hour) \( 112.00 \) Standard prime cost per unit \( \$ 124.00 \) KP uses a standard costing system. During the year, a variable overhead rate of \( \$ 5.40 \) per direct lábor hour was used. Actual results: Actual number of units produced: 2,100 Materials purchased: 7,200 pounds at \( \$ 3.80 \) per pound Materials used in production: 6,450 pounds Direct labor: 15,000 hours at \( \$ 15.75 \) Actual variable overhead: \( \$ 77,000 \) Compute the following variances. Remember to label your answers with an \( \mathrm{F} \) or \( \mathrm{U} \). 1. Materials price variance 2. Materials usage variance
