After evaluating Zero Company's manufacturing process, management decides to establish standards of 3.7 hours of direct labor per unit of product and $12 per hour for the labor rate. During October, the company uses 18,600 hours of direct labor at a $227,850 total cost to produce 4,500 units of product. In November, the company uses 28,800 hours of direct labor at a $384,768 total cost to produce 6,600 units of product.

Compute the rate variance, the efficiency variance, and the total direct labor cost variance for each of these two months. (Input all amounts as a positive value. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and round your final answers to the nearest dollar amount. Omit the "tiny_mce_markerquot; sign in your response.)
