Required:
1.      According to the standards, what direct labor cost should have been incurred to make the 20,000 discs? By how much does this differ from the cost that was incurred?
2.      Break down the difference in cost from (1) above into a labor rate variance and a labor effi- ciency variance.
3.      The budgeted variable manufacturing overhead rate is $16.00 per direct labor-hour. During July, the company incurred $39,100 in variable manufacturing overhead cost. Compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for the month.
