Direct Labor Variances: The following data relate to labor cost for production of 7,000 cellular telephones: Actual: Standard: 4,730 hrs. at $13.80 4,660 hrs. at $14,00 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 labor rate than planned. The lower efficient performance. Thus, the actual time required was b. The employees may have been less-experienced or poorly trained, thereby resulting in a level of experience or training may have resulted in than standard
