Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Actual hours used = 45,000

Actual rate per hour = $15.00

Standard rate per hour = $14.50

Standard hours for units produced = 47,000

Direct Labor Efficiency Variance:

= (Standard Hours for units produced - Actual Hours used) × Standard Rate  per hour

= (47,000 - 45,000) × 14.50

= 29,000 Favorable
