Respuesta :

Answer:

Direct labor rate variance= $798 favorable

Explanation:

To calculate the direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (11 - 10.79)*3,800

Direct labor rate variance= $798 favorable

Actual rate= 41,000 / 3,800= $10.79
