    The correct answer is D: $3500 unfavorable

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Standard:

    Direct materials standard 10 pounds per unit

    Direct materials standard cost $0.75 per pound

    Actual:

    Material purchased cost $0.85 per pound

    Direct materials purchased 40,000 pounds

    Direct materials used 35,000 pounds

    Finished goods produced 4,500 units

    Direct material price variance = (SP-AP) * AQ

    SP = standard price

    AP = actual price

    AQ = standard quantity

    Direct material price variance = (0.75-0.85) * 35000

    Direct material price variance = $3500 unfavorable
