The accounting records showed that 2,600 yards of cloth were used and the company paid $1.15 per yard. Standard time was two direct labor hours per unit at a standard rate of $11.50 per direct labor hour. Employees worked 1,900 hours and were paid $11.00 per hour Read the requirements. Requirement 1. What are the benefits of setting cost standards? Standard costing helps managers do the following Requirement 2. Calculate the direct materials cost variance and the direct materials efficiency variance as well as the direct labor cost and efficiency variances. Begin with the cost variances. Select the required formulas, compute the cost variances for direct materials and direct labor, and identify whether each variance is favorable (F) or unfavorable (U).
