Carol Dee, Inc. designs and manufactures fleece quarter-zip jackets. It sells its jackets to brand- name outdoor outfitters in lots of one dozen. Carol Dee's May 2020 static budget and actual results for direct inputs are as follows Part 1 Requirement 1. Calculate the direct materials and direct manufacturing labor price and efficiency variances in May 2020. What is the total flexible-budget variance for both inputs (direct materials and direct manufacturing labor) combined? What percentage is this variance of the total cost of direct materials and direct manufacturing labor in the flexible budget?Begin by calculating the direct materials and direct manufacturing labor price and efficiency variances in May 2020. Complete the actual results, price variance, and cost columns, then the efficiency variance and flexible budget columns. Label each variance as favorable or unfavorable.
