Answer:

$1,338,750

Explanation:

To calculate the direct labor budget, we need to determine the amount of direct labor hours and them multiply it to the direct labor cost.

The total amount of hours = 42,500 × 1.5 hours = 63,750

Direct labor budget cost = 63,750 × $21 = $1,338,750

Therefore, the direct labor budget for this year is $1,338,750
