    Hello! Could you help me to solve the next :
    In a period, 6,500 units were made. There was an adverse labour efficiency variance of $26,000. Workers were paid at $8 per hour which was equal to the standard labour rate. Total wages were $182,000.
    Calculate the standard labour hours per unit.

    24 employees x6 =144 x 38hr=
    5472. Overtime =24×9=216 x 4hrs = 864
    5472+864 = 6336/2500= 2.5344
    =2.53 to d nearest dm
