For the month of January, compute the following variances.Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "Favorable" or "Unfavorable". Select "None" and enter "0" for no effect The image presents a table listing different types of variances used in cost accounting to assess budgetary performance. The table is structured with two columns, and the rows are labeled as follows:1. **Direct-material price variance** - This variance measures the difference between the actual cost of materials and the expected cost based on preset standards.2. **Direct-material quantity variance** - This variance examines the difference in the amount of materials used versus the standard amount that was expected to be used.3. **Direct-material purchase price variance** - This captures the difference between the actual price paid for materials and the expected price, focusing on the purchase transaction alone.4. **Direct-labor rate variance** - This reflects the difference between the actual hourly wage rate paid and the standard wage rate that was planned.5. **Direct-labor efficiency variance** - This variance calculates the difference between the actual labor hours worked and the standard labor hours that were budgeted for the production.Each of these variances helps in identifying areas where financial performance diverged from expectations, enabling managers to make informed decisions to improve efficiency and cost-effectiveness. The table does not contain specific values, highlighting the framework of analysis used in variance accounting. **New Jersey Valve Company Production Summary**During January, the New Jersey Valve Company produced 7,400 units of a control valve at its Camden plant. This valve is used by milk processors. The production records indicate the following:- **Direct Labor:** 45,300 hours at a rate of $15.40 per hour- **Direct Material Purchased:** 32,000 pounds at $2.80 per pound- **Direct Material Used:** 29,300 pounds**Standard Prime Costs for the Control Valve:**- **Direct Material:** 4 pounds at $2.70 per pound, totaling **$10.80**- **Direct Labor:** 6 hours at $15.80 per hour, totaling **$94.80**The **Standard Prime Cost per Unit** is **$105.60**.**Required Tasks:**1. **Prepare a schedule** of standard production costs for January based on the actual production of 7,400 units.2. **Compute the following variances** for the month of January.
