Answer 1

Answer:

$30,000 unfavorable.

Explanation:

Calculation for what The direct labor efficiency variance for October was

Using this formula

Direct labor efficiency variance = (Standard hours for actual production - Actual hours) × Standard rate per hour

Let plug in the formula

Direct labor efficiency variance=(5,000 × 2 - $207,000 ÷ $18.00) × $20

Direct labor efficiency variance= (10000 - $11,500) × $20

Direct labor efficiency variance= $1,500 × $20

Direct labor efficiency variance= $30,000 unfavorable

Therefore The direct labor efficiency variance for October was $30,000 unfavorable
