Answer:

the actual payroll is $189,630

Explanation:

Calculation of Standard Payroll Cost

Standard Payroll Cost (flexed) = 13,100 hours×$14 per hour

                                                  = $183,400

Reconciling the Standard Payroll Cost to Actual Payroll Cost

Standard Payroll Cost (flexed)                                    $183,400

Add unfavorable direct labor efficiency variance      $15,400

Less favorable direct labor rate variance                    ($9,170)

Actual Payroll Cost                                                        189,630
