    19,840 pounds

    Explanation:

    The computation of actual quantity of materials is shown below:-

    Materials usage variance = (Selling quantity - Actual quantity) * Standard Price

    = (10,000 * 2 - Actual quantity) * $10 = $1,600

    = (20,000 - Actual quantity) * $10 = $1,600

    = 20,000 - Actual quantity = $160

    Actual quantity = 20,000 - $160

    = $19,840 pounds

    Therefore for computing the actual quantity of materials we simply applied the above formula.
