Expert Solution
Step 1

Lets understand the basics.

Direct labor rate variance is a variance between the rate at which labor should be hired against the rate at which it is hired.

Direct labor rate variance  = (Standard rate per hour - Actual rate per hour ) * Actual hour worked 

Direct labor efficiency variance is a variance between the standard time that should be taken for work against the actual time taken.

Direct labor efficiency variance = (Standard hour for production - Actual hour worked) * Standard rate per hour
