Hokey​ Min's Kleen Karpet cleaned

8585

rugs in​ October, consuming the following​ resources:

​Labor:	525525 hours at ​$1717 per hour
​Solvent:	120120 gallons at ​$88 per gallon
Machine​ Rental:	2222 days at ​$7575 per day

​a) Labor productivity per dollar​ =

nothing

​rugs/dollar ​(round your response to four decimal​ places).

Answer 1

1. LABOR = 8925

MATERIAL = 10560

MACHINE = 1650

OUTPUT = 85

MULTIFACTOR PRODUCTIVITY = OUTPUT / TOTAL INPUT = 85 / (8925 + 10560 + 1650) = 0.0040

2. LABOR = 8925

MATERIAL = 10560

MACHINE = 1650

OUTPUT = 8585

MULTIFACTOR PRODUCTIVITY = OUTPUT / TOTAL INPUT = 8585 / (8925 + 10560 + 1650) = 0.4062

THE QUESTION IS CONFUSING BECAUSE THE VALUES HAVE BEEN JUMBLED UP, SO I HAVE TAKEN THE OUTPUT AS BOTH 85 AND 8585.
