Expert Solution

Answer:

(a)

Direct labor rate variance
             = Actual hours x ( Standard Rate (-) Actual rate )
             = 5,600 x ( $ 21 (-) $ 19.95 )
             =    ($ 5,880) Favourable

Direct labor rate variance = ($ 5,880) Favourable

(b)

Direct labor time variance
             = Standard Rate x ( Standard Hours (-) Actual hours )
              = $ 21 x ( (2,700 Units x 2 DLH) (-) 5,600)
              =   $ 21 x ( 5,400 (-) 5,600 )
              =   $ 4,200 Unfavourable

Direct labor time variance = $ 4,200 Unfavourable

(c )

Total Direct labor cost variance
                 = Direct labor rate variance + Direct labor time variance
                  = $ 5,880 (-) $ 4,200
                  = ( $ 1,600 ) Favourable

Total Direct labor cost variance = ( $ 1,680 ) Favourable
