The job was completed in 520 hours and the average actual labor rate was $18.90 per hour. What is the labor efficiency (quantity) variance? A negative number indicates an favorable variance and a positive number indicates an unfavorable variance.
Job #601
Standard Labour Hours = 630 Actual Labour Hours =520
Standard Labour Rate = $18.10 Actual Labour Rate = $18.90
Labour Efficiency (quantity) variance = Standard Labour Rate (Standard Labour Hour - Actual Labour Hour)
= $18.10 (630 - 520) = $18.10*110 = $1,991
As per the given statement in question, A negative number indicates an favorable variance and a positive number indicates an unfavorable variance.
