    The paper gives an explicit formula for expressing the efficiency of the analysis of covariance, that is for measuring the improvement of a least squares estimator when concomitant variables are taken into account. In the derivation of it, a general Gauss-Markov multivariate linear model with the normality assumption for all variables is considered. Suggestions on application in the analysis of a designed experiment and of a growth curves model are given.
