Jaxson corporation has the following data related to direct labor costs for september: actual costs are 10,200 hours at $15.75 per hour and standard costs are 10,800 hours at $15.50 per hour. what is the direct labor time variance? a. $9,300 favorable b. $9,300 unfavorable c. $9,450 favorable d. $9,450 unfavorable

The direct labor time variance is calculated through the equation,
                                      DL time variance = (Sh - Ah) x Ac
where Ah and Sh are the actual and standard number of hours and Ac is the actual cost. Substituting,
                              DL time variance = (10,800 - 10,200) x $15.75 /h
                                            = $9450
Since, the answer of the direct labor time variance is positive then, it is favorable. The answer is letter C.
