Answer:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $6,270 favorable

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard= Direct labor 0.4 hours $ 11.00 per hour

Actual output 2,600 units

Actual direct labor-hours 470 hours

To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Standard quantity= 0.4*2,600= 1,040

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (1,040 - 470)*11

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $6,270 favorable
