    This is from the Revision Mock Exam
    Y plc produces widgets

    Each widget takes 0.5 hours to make. The standard rate of pay is $10 per hour. Idle time is expected to be 5% of hours paid.

    They actually produce 10,800 units. They pay $50,000 for 6000 hours, of which 330 hours are idle.
    What is the labour efficiency variance?

    Answer – $2,842 A

    So? What is your question?

    (The answer is correct if that is what you are asking!)

    I couldn’t understand how they got the answer, but I see you now answered it on someone elses thread.

    Thanks
