    Do you use the formula
    (Standard labour hours produced - Actual labour hours worked) x standard labour rate per hour = Labour efficiency variance?

    If so, then
    (Standard labour hours produced - Actual labour hours worked) x standard overhead absorption rate per labour hour = Fixed overhead efficiency variance

    If not, please state the labour effiency variance formula that you use.

    Not quote the answer to your question but hopefully these 2 points help.
    Remember:
    If more labour hours are actually worked than budgeted, then the business has the capacity to produce more and fixed overhead capacity must be favourable.

    If the actual fixed overhead cost is more than budgeted fixed overhead expenditure must be adverse.
