An improperly varnished table is very expensive to correct. Inspection hours for the 10,000 tables varnished in September totaled 2,500 hours by 16 employees. Eight quarts of varnish were used, on average, for each table. The standard amount of varnish per table is nine quarts. The cost of inspection for September was equal to the budgeted amount of $76,000.
