    Labor Rate Variance:

    = Actual direct labor hours * (per actual direct labor hour price - per Standard direct labor hour price)

    = 368 * (16.50 - 15)

    = $552 U

    Labor Efficiency Variance:

    = Per Standard direct labor hour price * (Actual direct labor hours - Standard direct labor hours)

    = 15 * (368 - 400)

    = $480 F

    The journal entry to record labor variances is:

    Work in process A/c Dr. $6000

    Labor rate variance A/c Dr. $552

    To Labor efficiency variance $480

    To Payroll $6,072
