27) Masun Irwin has come to the accounting department for help in interpreting his
variance report. He says that he understands that last month was not a very good one for
output, but he really thought everyone put forth good effort, so he is confused about the

Write a short note to Mason explaining the probable cause of the unfavorable labor
efficiency variance.
