Explanation

Labour efficiency variance is the difference between the actual time taken to achieve a given production output less the standard hours allowed for same multiplied by the standard labour rate

Standard labour rate = Efficiency variance/ Difference in hours

Difference in hours = Standard hour - Actual hours

                                 = 46,000 - 45,000

                                 = 1000 hours

Standard rate = 4,800/100o hours

                     = $4.8 per hour
