Hi,


Please find the answer as follows:


Part A:


Direct Labor Price Variance = Actual Hours*(Actual Rate - Standard Rate) = 319000*(5486800/319000 - 18) = 255200 (F)


Direct Labor Effciency Variance = Standard Rate*(Actual Hours - Standard Hours) = 18*(319000 - 1090000*.30) = 144000 (F)


Thanks.
