For direct materials, the materials were purchased from a new
supplier who is anxious to enter into a long-term purchase
contract. Would you recommend that the company sign the
contract?
Yes or No
For direct labor, compute the rate and efficiency variances.
(Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for
favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e.,
zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)
