Answer:
The average of the monthly productivity figure is 1.51 units per machine hour
Explanation:
For computing the average of the monthly productivity, first we have to compute the total hours, and then units per machine hours
So, the formula to compute the total hours equals to
= Hours per machine × Number of machines
For JAN = 307 × 4 = 1,228 hours
For FEB = 186 × 6 = 1,116 hours
For MAR = 382 × 5 = 1,910 hours
For APR = 307 × 6 = 1,842 hours
Now, the units per machine hours equals to
= Units produced ÷ total hours
For JAN = 2,175 units ÷ 1,228 hours = 1.77
For FEB = 2,175 units ÷ 1,116 hours = 1.94
For MAR = 2,175 units ÷ 1,910 hours = 1.13
For APR = 2,175 units ÷ 1,842 hours = 1.18
Now, the average of the monthly productivity equals to
= ( 1.77 + 1.94 + 1.13 + 1.18) ÷ 4
= 1.51 units per machine hour
