Question

Which variance would tell managers how much of the total labor variance is due to using a different amount of worker hours than​ anticipated?

Answer 1

Answer:

direct labor efficiency variance

Explanation:

The two labor variances are:

2. Direct labor rate variance : how much of the total labor variance occurred because the actual wage paid to labor was more or less than budgeted.
