Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer:
Direct labor price variance   =    Actual Hours x ( Standard Rate (-) Actual rate )
($ 7,000)                                      =      14,000   x ( Standard Rate (-) $ 18 )
   ($ 7,000) / $ 14,000                =    ( Standard Rate (-) $ 18 )
( Standard Rate (-) $ 18 )       =       ($ 0.50 )
     Standard Rate                      =    $ 18 (-) $ 0.50
     Standard Rate                      =     $ 17.50
Standard Rate                   =     $ 17.50
