Crish Industries makes heavy construction equipment. The standard for a particular crane calls for 24 direct labor-hours at $17 per direct labor-hour. During a recent period 2,250 cranes were made. The labor rate variance was zero and the labor efficiency variance was $7,300 unfavorable. How many actual direct labor-hours were worked?

Ackerman’s Garage uses standards to plan and control labor time and expense. The standard time for an engine tune-up is 3.5 hours, and the standard labor rate is $15 per hour. Last week, 24 tune-ups were completed. The labor efficiency variance was 6 hours unfavorable, and the labor rate variance totaled $81 favorable. Required: Calculate the actual direct labor hourly rate paid for tune-up work last week. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.) Calculate the dollar amount of the labor efficiency variance. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).) Less skilled, lower paid workers took longer than standard to get the work done is the most likely explanation for these two variances a. actual direct labor rate per hour b. direct labor efficiency c. less skilled workers took longer than standard time?
