    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Direct labor-hours used to produce this output = 2,130

    Actual variable overhead rate = $6.10 per hour

    Variable overhead per hour = $6.00

    The variable overhead rate variance for July:

    = Direct labor-hours used to produce this output * (Actual variable overhead rate per hour - Variable overhead per hour)

    = 2,130 * ($6.1 - $6)

    = 213 Unfavorable
