Question:
a) Using two decimal places, Calculate the total productivity of
each period and note that output decreased by 2 percent in the
second period. what is the relative productivity change? [15
Marks]
total cost incurred in period 1 = 20x10+12x15+6x30 = 560
If N units are produced, the net productivity in period 1 = N/560 =0.0017851N
Total cost incurred in period 2 = 16x10+16x15+11x30 = 730
If output decreases by 2%, the hew productivity is 0.98N/730 = 0.13424N
fraction change = 0.0013424N /0.0017851N = 0.7517
5 change = 1-0.7517 =-0.2482
Hence the productivity decreases by 24.82%

1. 2. A company that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used 6 workers, who together produced an average of 90 carts per hour. Workers receive $16 per hour, and machine cost was $30 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another...
