A) $1,500 favorable
B) $15,640 unfavorable
C) $17,250 favorable
D) $23,800 favorable

10)Assume that it takes 15 minutes of labor time to crush enough garlic to fill one container of yogurt. Because the smell of the garlic can be unbearable, workers are given (and they take it!) 10 minutes of break time every hour (i.e., 50 minutes of work, 10 minutes of break).

B) unfavorable.
C) zero.
D) indeterminable since it is not related to the labor efficiency variance.
