    The answer is 12,000

    Explanation:

    Solution

    Given that:

    The labor rate variance = (SR-AR) * AH

    Now,

    (15-13.50) * AH = 18,000

    so,

    AH = 18000/1.50

    Gives us,

    =12,000

    The total labor variance is = The standard labor cost - The actual labor costs.

    = (10000 * 15) - (12,000 * 13.50)

    =150,000 - 162,000

    = 12,000 U

    Therefore the total labor variance Claire Company is 12,000
