Please try these steps before looking at my answers:
Budgeted cost
Budgeted hours.......= Standard rate per hour
Actual hours used x standard rate per hour = Standard labour cost of the hours worked
Standard labour cost of the hours worked +(adverse)/-(favourable) labour rate variance = Actual labour cost
Actual labour cost
Actual hours used.......= Actual labour rate per hour

Putting numbers in:
£163,125
...11,250.......= £14.50 per hour
11,880 x £14.50 per hour = £172,260
£172,260 - £14,850 labour rate variance = £157,410
£157,410
...11,880.......= £13.25 per hour
I hope this has helped. I also hope you are looking at this reply having attempted the answer already on your own. I hope we agree on £13.25
