Exam 11: Learning Curves

It takes a worker with a 90 percent learning curve 72.9 minutes to complete the fourth unit of a seven-unit job.Estimate the amount of time the worker spent on the first two units.

A manager wants to analyze the learning curve associated with producing one of his company's products.Accordingly,he has gathered the following data: What is the learning curve percentage?

A manager wants to analyze the learning curve associated with producing one of his company's products.Accordingly,he has gathered the following data: Approximately how long did it take to produce the first four units?

How long would a job with a 70 percent learning curve and a time of 20 hours for the first unit require (approximately,in hours)for the third unit?

A 77% learning curve will produce relatively minor decreases in completion times of the first few repetitions.

Learning curves generally apply to situations in which there is a high degree of human involvement,and tasks are fairly repetitive.

A job has a 70% learning curve.If the first unit took 10 hours to complete,the third unit should take roughly how many hours?
