    Which of the following might explain an adverse direct labour cost variance?
    1. Working overtime
    2. Idle time
    3. Poor productivity
    A. Reasons 1 and 2 only
    B. Reasons 1 and 3 only
    C. Reasons 2 and 3 only
    D. Reason 3 only

    Answer is D. I am clear about it.
    My question is if it ask for adverse direct labor efficiency variance so what will be answer? Like here, we are not including A and B as it is asking for direct labor cost and these are both indirect labor cost.

    Surely efficiency is linked to productivity, so only Reason 3.
