Answer:

<em>Labour rate variance  =    $260 favourable</em>

Explanation:

<em>The rate variance would be the difference between the standard labour cost of the 2,300 units sold and the actual labour cost</em>

Standard labour cost  (3600/1200× 2300)<em>      6,900</em>

<em>Actual labour cost                                             </em><u><em>6, 640</em></u>

<em>labour rate variance                                     </em><u><em>   $260</em></u><em> favourable</em>

The variance is favourable because the StuckinMyHouse book company saved $260 as a result of of his actual cost been less than the expected cost.
