**Problem Context:**Piper Corporation’s standards require 4,900 direct labor-hours to produce 1,400 units of product. During October, the company worked 1,300 direct labor-hours and produced 1,300 units. The task is to calculate the standard hours allowed for October based on the production.**Question:**What would the standard hours allowed for October be? (Round your intermediate calculations to 1 decimal place.)**Multiple Choice Options:**- ○ 4,900 hours- ○ 1,300 hours- ○ 4,550 hours- ○ 3,600 hours**Guidance:**To calculate the standard hours allowed, use the ratio of standard hours per unit calculated from the given standards:\[ \text{Standard hours per unit} = \frac{4,900 \text{ hours}}{1,400 \text{ units}} \]Use this to find the standard hours allowed for the actual output:\[ \text{Standard hours allowed} = \text{Standard hours per unit} \times 1,300 \text{ units} \]

The number of standard hours allowed is the number of hours of production time that should have been…

Javon Company set standards of 2 hours of direct labor per unit at a rate of $15.10 per hour. During October, the company actually uses 11,000 hours of direct labor at a $168,300 total cost to produce 5,700 units. In November, the company uses 15,000 hours of direct labor at a $230,250 total cost to produce 6,100 units of product.AH = Actual HoursSH = Standard HoursAR = Actual RateSR = Standard Rate(1) Compute the direct labor rate variance, the direct labor efficiency variance, and the total direct labor variance for each of these two months.(2) Javon investigates variances of more than 5% of actual direct labor cost. Which direct labor variances will the company investigate further?
