Respuesta :

Answer:

Standard labour rate = $19.6 (unfavourable).

The labour cost variance  can be calculated as below:

Variance = Actual cost - Standard cost

               = Actual labour rate x Actual hour of labour - Standard labour rate x Actual hour of labour

Putting all the number together, we get:

880 = 17.5 x 420 - Standard labour rate x 420. Solve the equation, we get: Standard labour rate = 19.6 (unfavourable)
