Direct Labor Variances The following data relate to labor cost for production of 22,000 cellular telephones:
Actual: 4,220 hrs. at $44.50
Standard: 4,160 hrs. at $46.00
a. Determine the direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total direct labor cost variance. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.
Rate variance $
Time variance $
Total direct labor cost variance $
b. The employees may have been less-experienced workers who were paid less than more-experienced workers or poorly trained, thereby resulting in a labor rate than planned. The lower level of experience or training may have resulted in efficient performance. Thus, the actual time required was than standard.
