    Option (b) : $6,000 F

    Explanation:

    As per the data given in the question, computation are as follows:

    Standard rate = $22.00

    Actual labor hours = 183,000

    Actual rate = Actual labor cost : actual labor hour

    = $4,020,000 : 183,000 hours = $21.9672

    Variance = (standard rate - actual rate) * actual labor hour

    = ($22.00 - $21.9672) * 183,000

    = $6,000 F
