Answer: a) unfavorable direct labor price (rate) variance of $2,085.
Explanation:
The purpose of calculating variance is to see if a company is being efficient in it's production of goods and services or in it's general affairs. The variance is calculated by subtracting the actual amount that was used to do something from it's budgeted amount.
If the actual amount is higher then the Variance is said to be Unfavourable. The reverse holds true.
Calculating the Direct Labor price (rate) Variance will give us,
Direct Labor Price (rate) Variance = (Actual Price - Standard price)*Actual Hour
NB - Figures are given for 30 minutes so need to be converted.
Direct Labor Price (rate) Variance = (111,285/9,100 *2 - 115,200/9,600 * 2 ) * 9100/2
= $2,085
Actual Price (rate) variance was higher than Standard Price (rate) variance which led to an Unfavourable balance of $2,085
