Answer: 12%

Explanation:

Given the following ;

Expected direct labor cost=$90000

Expected production = 15000 units.

Production time per unit of direct labor 0.5 hours

Therefore, total direct labor required to produce 15,000 units

Total direct labor hour = 15,000 × 0.5 = 7500 labor hours.

Therefore, Budgeted direct labor rate % is given by;

Expected direct labor cost ÷ Total direct labor(hour)

$90,000 ÷ 7500 = 12%
