Hmm, I'm torn between C) and D). Either way, the auditor is going to need some data on the workforce and the equipment to really get to the bottom of this mystery.

B) Total tire production costs for the operating period seems like the most logical choice. If costs are up but output is down, that's a red flag for inefficiency.

I'm going with C) Plant production employee headcount average for the operating period. Knowing how many workers were on the line could help identify any staffing issues that may have contributed to the drop in production.

I think A) Total tire production labor hours for the operating period is the way to go. If workers are being less efficient, that should show up in the total labor hours.

User 1: I agree, checking the total tire production labor hours would give us a good idea of worker efficiency.

I think we should also request the production machinery utilization rates. It could give us insight into any issues with the equipment.

D) The production machinery utilization rates. This will give the auditor a clear picture of how efficiently the plant is using its production equipment, which could be a key factor in the decreased tire output.
