Labour Mix Variance Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Labour Mix Variance = Standard Rate*(Reversed Standard Rate-Actual Time)
LMV = SR*(RSR-AT)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Labour Mix Variance - Labour Mix Variance is a concept used in cost accounting to assess the difference between the actual and budgeted labor mix.
Standard Rate - Standard Rate refers to the amount paid per hour for work, often determined by industry standards or local laws.
Reversed Standard Rate - Reversed Standard Rate is the minimum wage or adjustments to industry standards.
Actual Time - Actual Time refers to the time taken to produce an item on a production line versus the planned production time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Standard Rate: 140 --> No Conversion Required
Reversed Standard Rate: 115 --> No Conversion Required
Actual Time: 4 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

LMV = SR*(RSR-AT) --> 140*(115-4)

Evaluating ... ...

LMV = 15540

What is Labour Mix Variance ?

Labour Mix Variance measures the impact of changes in the labour mix on labour costs. It is the portion of direct labor efficiency variance that is attributable to the difference between the standard and actual group composition of employees. It defines the actual proportion or composition of different types of labor (e.g., skilled workers, semi-skilled workers, unskilled workers) used in a production process during a specific period. It represents the planned or expected proportion of various types of labour in the production process, as defined in the budget or standard cost system. Labour mix variance analysis can provide insights into efficiency, resource allocation, and the effectiveness of workforce planning. Management can use this information to make adjustments to labour allocation, staffing levels, or training programs to optimize performance and control costs.
