compute labour variances from the following data

in a manufacturing company, 2 hrs are required to produce one un


In the month of january, 2021, 250 units were produced by consum
solution
Standard hour for actual output = 250 units * 2 hrs = 500 hrs
Standard Rate = Rs. 10 per hour
Actual hours = 625 hrs
Actual rate= Actual labour cost/ Actual hours=Rs. 7,813/ 25=Rs. 12.50.

Labour Cost Variance (LCV)=(SH*SR) - (AH*AR)


=(500hrs*Rs.10) - (625 hrs* Rs. 12.50)
=Rs. 5000 - 7,813= (-Rs. 2,813) unfavourable

Labour Rate Variance(LRV)= (SR - AR)*AH


=(Rs. 10 - Rs. 12.50)*625hrs
=(- Rs.1,563)------unfavourable

Labour Efficiency Varaince (LEV)= (SH - AH)*SR


=(500hrs - 625hrs) *Rs. 10
=(-Rs. 1,250)------------unfavourable

LCV=LRV+LEV
(-Rs. 2,813)=(-Rs. 1563)+ (-Rs. 1,250)
produce one unit of output @ Rs. 10 per hour.
uced by consuming 625 labour hours and paying Rs. 7,813.
