Direct labor budget utilized to compare the actual direct labor cost and standard cost for specific task and for controlling purpose so that if there are variances those variances could be eliminated to bring the actual cost to budgeted cost.
Direct labor budget tells the management that how much direct labor is required to finish the production of units.
Direct labor budget is used for controlling purpose as it tells that how much direct labor is required for specific job to be complete.
Direct labor budget is prepared during planning stage before the actual production starts.
The direct labor cost budget typically starts with the sales budget, as it outlines the anticipated sales volume and revenue. From the sales budget, management can estimate the production requirements needed to meet demand, which then informs the direct labor needs based on the labor hours required per unit of production. Additionally, historical data on labor efficiency and wage rates may also be considered to finalize the direct labor cost budget.

The production budget needs to be exploded into budgets for direct material, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.

The manufacturing overhead budget show the expected manufacturing over head costs for the budget period. The budget distinguishes between variable and fixed overhead costs. Companies fluctuate with production volume on the basis of the following rates per direct labor hour: indirect materials $1.00, indirect labor $1.40, utilities $0.40, and maintenance $0.20. Thus, for 6,200 direct labor hours budgeted indirect materials are $6,200 (6,200 x $1), and budgeted indirect labor is $8,680 (6,200 x $1.40). The company recognizes that some maintenance is fixed. The amounts reported for fixed cost are assumed.
Direct labor which do not vary with level of production is fixed direct labor while labor vary with change in production is variable direct labor.
The Production Budget for Labor Day was $18,000,000.
Average direct labor cost is the opening direct labor cost + closing direct labor cost / 2
