Answer:
Productivity is measured by the amount of output per unit of input.
In this case, the inputs will be the hours spent doing research and writing their essays. Output will equal the amount of pages written.
Marci spent 8 hours and wrote a 26 page long report, so her productivity = 26 pages / 8 hours = 3.25 pages per hour
Jack spent 20 hours and wrote a 26 page long report, so his productivity = 26 pages / 20 hours = 1.3 pages per hour
Marci is much more productive in terms of hours spent doing and writing, and how long the report is.
The problem with this type of analysis is that we do not know if Marci's report was good or bad, and the same applies to Jack's. Since we do not know what grade they got, we cannot be sure how effective their work was.
Note:
I wasn't able to access the Chester Income Statement but I successfully accessed a similar question Digby.
The Complete Question is as under:
Refer to the HR Reports in the Inquirer. Through past investments in recruiting and training Digby has obtained a productivity index of 109.6%. This means that Digby's labor costs would be increased by 9.6% if it did not have these productivity improvements. This is a competitive advantage that Digby can sustain or even widen further if its competitors have no HR initiatives. Now, refer to the Income Statement in Digby's Annual Report. How much did Digby's productivity improvements save it in direct labor costs (in thousands) last year?
A. $766
B. $29818
C. $3137
D. $3211
Answer:
Option D. $3,137
Explanation:
The Productivity Index of 9.6% shows that if the improvement plan is implemented then the efficiency gains would result in saving of 9.6% of total direct cost. So if we total the direct cost for the year for all of the four products then we have an amount of $32,680 which is given at the second last column.
The amount saved last year would be:
Savings = $32,680 * 9.6% = $3,137
Hence the option C is correct here.
Answer:
the portfolio's return will be Ep(r)= 9.2 %
Explanation:
if the stock lies on the security market line , then the expected return will be
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf)
where
Ep(r) = expected return of the portfolio
rf= risk free return
E(M) = expected return of the market
β = portfolio's beta
then
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf)
E(M) = (Ep(r) - rf ) / β + rf
replacing values
E(M) = (Ep(r) - rf ) / β + rf
E(M) = ( 17.2% - 3.2%) /1.4 + 3.2% = 13.2%
since the stock and the risk free asset belongs to the security market line , a combination of both will also lie in this line, then the previous equation of expected return also applies.
Thus for a portfolio of β=0.6
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf) = 3.2% + 0.6*(13.2%-3.2%) = 9.2 %
Ep(r)= 9.2 %
