Disclaimer: Hello there, I'm a college student in this Managerial Accounting class and I cannot for the life of me figure out the 8 question marks on this problem. Any insight would be SO SO SO appreciated!!!!!

Mickley Corporation produces two products, Alpha6s and Zeta7s, which pass through two operations, Sintering and Finishing. Each of the products uses two raw materials, X442 and Y661. The company uses a standard cost system, with the following standards for each product (on a per unit basis):

Raw Materials Standard Labor Time
Product X442 Y661 Sintering Finishing

Alpha 6 2.5 kilos 2.5 liters 0.20 hours 0.90 hours
Zeta7 4.5 kilos 3.5 liters 0.30 hours 1.20 hours

Information relating to materials purchased and materials used in production during May follows:

Material Purchases Purchase Cost Standard Price Used in Production
X442 15,000 kilos $39,000 2.40 per kilo 9,500 kilos
Y661 16,000 liters $20,000 1.40 per liter 14,000 liters

The following additional information is available:
-The company recognizes price variances when materials are purchased.
-The standard labor rate is $23.00 per hour in Sintering and $20.00 per hour in Finishing.
-During May, 1,300 direct labor-hours were worked in Sintering at a total labor cost of $30,550, and 2,950 direct labor-hours were worked in Finishing at a total labor cost of $64,900.
-Production during May was 1,600 Alpha6s and 1,300 Zeta7s.
