Most offices could probably get back a good portion of
that hour a day just by staying off eBay and Travelocity. :)

I'd still be willing to bet that a case study would prove the extra
hours could be eliminated through best practices (if allowed by those
upper managers) without effecting quality/quantity. If not, given that
the original poster had 10 people in the group, the math indicates their
extra hours allowed the company to save one FTE with no return to those
among the 10 who did not wish to work that long or failed my earlier
checklist.
