15. What is the time for the employee to build 8 units with this learning curve using the cumulative average-time method? A) 49 hours B) 25.33 hour C) 31.8 hours D) None of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 49 hours

Explanation:

Unit:           1                          2                                           4                            8

Time:         10 hours           7 hours

Total Time:  10 hours        17 hours divided by 2

Average:    10 hours         8.5 (85% learning curve)    8.8 x .85 = 7.225   7.225 x .85 = 6.141

So total time taken by 8 rings will be 6.141 x 8 = 49.13 hours.
