Explanation:

Employees are being paid $8 per hour,

Constant utility cost per month will remain same as $600

and loaf ingredient cost $0.35/loaf

Current multi factor productivity for 640 work hours per month is 0.24 loaf/dollar

640 hours  * $8/hour = $5,120

1500 loaves * $0.35 = $525

$5,120 + $525 + $600 = $6,245

= 1500 loaves / $6,245

=0.24 loaf/dollar
