If 200 labor hours were required to produce the first unit in a production run, and n labor hours were required to produce the seventh unit. Find the value of n if the learning curve rate during production is 80%.?
Ans) TN = T1 (Nb)
Where, TN is time for nth unit
T1 is time required for 1st unit.
b = (log of learning rate)/(log2)
TN = 200 (7(log0.8/log2)) = 200 × 7(-0.3219) = 200 × 0.5345 =106.8979

It took MegaTech, Inc. 200,000 labor-hours to produce the first of several oil drilling rigs for Antarctic exploration. Your company, Natural Resources, Inc. has agreed to purchase the fifth oil drilling rig from their manufacturing yard. Assume that MegaTech experiences a learning rate of 75%. At a labor rate of $38 per hour, what should you, as the purchasing agent expect to pay for the fifth unit? TN = T1C, Where TN = Time needed to produce the Nth unit...
