Short Answer is twenty four hours.

Now that is the 'un-interrupted version': actually the four phases, G1, S, G2, and M of the Cell cycle are controlled by discrete events that happen during G1, S and M phases.

G1 0 to 12 hours; S 12 to 18 hours, G2 18 to 22 hours and Mitosis from 22 to 24 hours.

Actually, it varies quite a lot. This is because we have many different types of cells in our body, and some of them live shorter than others, so they need to reproduce quicker. Other organisms, like bacteria, can reproduce within a matter of minutes.

This depends greatly depending on the cell, some cells divide every few hours while others last for life

What is the time taken to complete mitosis?

It varies, cell to cell, species to species, age to age. In round numbers, the doubling time for a bacterium like E. coli is a half hour, whereas the doubling time for a eukaryotic cell is probably more on the order of several hours. However, you really can't generalize too much here because cells tend to undergo more mitosis during development than they do in adults and some species undergo far more rapid mitosis than others. For example, mouse embryonic stem cells divide much faster than human embryonic stem cells.

What would happen to cells in a hypothetical cell line if mitosis occurs every 10 hours but cytokinesis occurs every 20 hours?

If in a cell mitosis occurs every 10 hours but cytokineses occurs every 20 hours the cell would be out of balance. As we know mitosis, is the process by which a animal or plant cell separates the chromosomes in its nucleus into two identical sets. However, cytokineses is when the cytoplasm splits into two. Upon knowing this we know now that if they are both slow enough, it wouldn't effect the cell that much. But if it is to slow then the cell might become a cell with no nucleus, or with no cytoplasm. Though this rarely happens. The cell most likely will stay the same.
