Explanation / Answer

1) Labour efficiency variance = (Standard hour-actual hour)Standard rate

                                               = (100*3-400)*20

Labour efficiency variance = 2000 Unfavorable

So answer is b) $2000 Unfavorable

2) Total labour variance = (100*3*20)-10000 = 4000 Unfavorable

So answer is b) $4000 Unfavorable

3) Total material variance = (100*8*5)-(100*7*6) = 200 Unfavorable

So answer is c) $200 Unfavorable
