The direct labor time variance is calculated via the equation,
                        DL time variance = (SH - AH) x AR
where SH and AH are the number of hours for standard and actual and AR is the actual rate. Substituting the known variables,
                       DL time variance = (10,800 - 10,200) x ($15.75)
                                                      = $9,450
Since we got  a positive value, the variance is favorable. The answer is letter C.
