Please give an accurate and complete answer. Please pay attention to the requirements in red. If correct, I will give a good comment.

At a recent seminar you attended, the invited speaker was discussing some of the advantages and disadvantages of standard costs in terms of evaluating performance and motivating goal-congruent behavior on the part of employees. One criticism of standard costs in particular caught your attention: The use of conventional standard costs may not provide appropriate incentives for improvements needed to compete effectively with world-class organizations. The speaker then discussed so-called continuous-improvement standard costs. Such standards embody systematically lower costs over time. For example, on a monthly basis, it might be appropriate to budget a 1.0% reduction in per-unit direct labor cost. Assume that the standard wage rate into the foreseeable future is $25 per hour. Assume, too, that the budgeted labor-hour standard for October of the current year is 2.00 hours and that this standard is reduced each month by 2%. During December of the current year the company produced 8,800 units of XL-10, using 17,300 direct labor hours. The actual wage rate per hour in December was $29.00 Required: 1. Prepare a table that contains the standard labor-hour requirement per unit and standard direct labor cost per unit for the 4 months October through January 2. Compute the direct labor efficiency variance for December. Was this variance favorable (F) or unfavorable (U!? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. Required 1 Required 2 Prepare a table that contains the standard labor-hour requirement per unit and standard direct labor cost per unit for the 4 months, October through January. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Use rounded answers in the subsequent requirement. Round your "Standard Direct Labor Cost/Unit" answers to 2 decimal places and Standard Labor-Hour Requirement/Unit" answers to 5 decimal places.)
