Japan Company produces lamps that require 3 standard hours per unit at an hourly rate of $16.50 per hour. Production of 3,700 units required 11,430 hours at an hourly rate of $17.00 per hour. Enter favorable variances as negative numbers.

(a) Determine the direct labor rate variance.

$(Favorable/Unfavorable)

(b) Determine the direct labor time variance.

$(F/U)

(c) Determine the cost variance.

$(F/U)

Solutions

Expert Solution

a)Labor rate variance = AH[AR-SR]

                    = 11430 [17-16.5]

                     = 5715 U

b)labor time variance = SR[AH-SH]

                     = 16.5[11430-(3700*3)]

                        = 16.5[11430-11100]

                        = 5445 U

C)cost variance =rate variance + time variance

        = 5715 +5445

          = 11160 U
