    1. February - Budgeted direct labor hours = 378; Budgeted direct labor cost = $3,024.

    2. March - Budgeted direct labor hours = 413; Budgeted direct labor cost = $3,304.

    Explanation:

    1. February direct labor budget:

    a. Number of direct labor-hours budgeted for February = 0.07 * 5,400 = 378 labor hours

    b. February budgeted direct labor cost = 378 * $8.00 = $3,024

    2. March direct labor budget:

    a. Number of direct labor-hours budgeted March = 0.07 * 5,900 = 413 labor hours

    b. March budgeted direct labor cost = 413 * $8.00 = $3,304.00
