2. Calculate the DL Efficiency Variance. Indicate whether it is favorable or unfavorable. Standard Hours allowed = LEV = 3. If you add up these two variances, does it total to the DL flexible budget variance we calculated in Activity 1? Why or why not? This DOES match the DL Flexible budget variance we calculated in Activity \#1 DLH purchased and used are the same (unlike DM where there may be differences between purchased and used!) Activity #3 - (Continued) 4. Speculate as to what may have caused the DL variances. An unfavorable DL rate variance shows that the wage paid was higher than the wage budgeted. The favorable DL efficiency variance shows that less labor was used than was budgeted for the amount we produced. We may have hired more experienced workers who were paid more; these more experienced workers were able to be more efficient than the DLH standard (thus tying the two variances together). Analyze all four variances (two from Activity #2 and two from this activity) together (the big picture). How might they be related? Note that the more experienced DL workers may have made fewer mistakes and better at cutting and sewing the awnings - thus requiring fewer yards of DM when making the awnings
