Direct materials ...... $24,000
Direct labor .............. 8,000
Total ................... $32,000
The standard materials price is $0.60 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $10 per hour. At the end of October, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows:
Actual direct materials .... $21,600
Actual direct labor ........... 7,200
