Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

From the information given,

Budgeted hours = 660

Budgeted rate per hour = 3.4

Budgeted rooms to clean = (600 × 60)/36 = 36000/36 = 1000

1. What is the amount of the budget variance?

This will be:

= (Actual room - Budgeted room) × Standard rate

= (1050 - 1000) × 3.4

= 50 × 3.4

= 170 favorable

2. What is the amount of the volume variance?

This will be:

= Standard cost - Actual labor cost

= (630 × 3.4) - (660 × 3.3)

= 2142 - 2178

= 36 Unfavorable

3. What is the amount of the efficiency variance?

This will be:

= 3.4 × (630 - 660)

= 3.4 × (-30)

= 10.20 Unfavorable

4. What is the amount of the rate variance?

This will be:

= Actual time ( Standard rate - Actual rate)

= 660 × (3.4 - 3.3)

= 660 × 1

= 660 Favorable
