    hi
    i am having trouble finding the material variance. i am confused as what we should do. i would really appreciate some help.
    The following information is available for direct material A for the month of June
    Fixed budge $210,000
    Actual cost $365,625
    Flexed budget $262,500
    What is the total direct materials variance for the month of June?

    The total materials variance is the difference between the actual cost and the flexed budget.

    I do suggest that you watch my free lectures on variances. The lectures are a complete free course and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
