    Newbill's labour rate variance

    = (Standard rate - Actual rate) x Actual hours worked

    = ($19.60 - $19.40) x 26,000 hours

    = $5,200 (F)

    Actual rate

    = Actual payroll cost

    Actual hours worked

    = $504,400

    26,000 hours

    = $19.40

    Explanation:

    Labour rate variance is the difference between standard rate and actual rate multiplied by actual hours worked. Actual rate is actual payroll cost divided by actual hours worked.
