Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

As the question was missing data, I have done a quick google search and found the question which I am uploading it here as an image.

DATA:

Last Year:

      Labor Input = $30,100

      Raw Materials Input = $35,100

      Energy Input = $5010

      Capital Input = $50,010

      Other Input = $2010

      Sales Output = $200,100

This Year:

      Labor Input = $40,100

      Raw Materials Input = $45,100

      Energy Input = $6050

      Capital Input = $49,750

      Other Input = $2875

      Sales Output = $202,100

FORMULA:

Productivity = Output / Input

CALCULATION:

Total Input of Last Year =

                             $ (30,100 + 35,100 + 5010 + 50,010 + 2010) = $122,230

Total Input of This Year =

                             $ (40,100 + 45,100 + 6050 + 49,750 + 2875) = $143,875

TOTAL PRODUCTIVITY:

                                               Last Year                                 This Year

Output in ($)                         $200100                                 $202100

Input in ($)                              $122230                                 $143875

Total Productivity      200100 / 122230 = 1.64          202100 / 143875 = 1.40

PARTIAL PRODUCTIVITY:

Last Year:

Partial Productivity Labor = 200100 / 30100 = 6.65

Partial Productivity Capital = 200100 / 50010 = 4.00

Partial Productivity Raw Materials = 200100 / 35100 = 5.70

This Year:

Partial Productivity Labor = 202100 / 40100 = 5.04

Partial Productivity Capital = 202100 / 49750 = 4.06

Partial Productivity Raw Materials = 202100 / 45100 = 4.48
