    Sir, I am confused about a number in bpp.
    A company manufactures a single product, M. Budgeted production output of product M during August is 200 units. Each unit of product M requires 6 labour hours for completion and PR Co anticipates 20 per cent idle time. Labour is paid at a rate of 7% per hour. What is the the direct labour cost budget for August?
    A) $6720
    B) $8400
    C) $10080
    D) $10500

    Answer
    Active hrs required for pdtn (200*6 hrs) =1200
    Allowance for idle time( 20%=25%). = 300
    ————
    Total hours to be paid for. 1500
    *$7 per hour.
    Direct lbr cost budget. $10500

    Sir I would like to know how the idle time of 20 percent changes to 25 percent of active hrs worked.
