Answer:
(A) Current period productivity= 4 units/hr
Previous period productivity= 3.833units/hr
(B) increase in productivity by 4.356 percent
Explanation:
A manager checkedthe rate of production and found out that a worker produced 160 units while working for 40 hours
In the previous week the same worker produced 138 units while working for 36 hours
(A) The current period productivity can be calculated as follows
= 160 units/40 hours
= 4 units/hr
The previous period productivity can be calculated as follows
= 138 units / 36 hours
= 3.833 units/hr
(B) The productivity growth can be calculated as follows
= current period productivity - previous period productivity / previous period productivity
= 4-3.833/3.833
= 0.167/3.833
= 0.04356 × 100
= 4.356 percent
Hence there was an increase in workers productivity by 4.356 percent
Exact interest method is using 365 days instead of 360.
We are going to use the formula: I = Prt, we will derived
the formula of rate.
r = I /Pt would be our formula, plugging in our amounts.
r = 93.37 / 2000 / (284/365)
= 93.37 / 2000 (0.7781)
= 93.37 / 1556.1643
= 0.06 or 6% when converted to percent.
To check:
I = Prt
= 2000 x 0.06 x 284/365
= 120 x 0.7781
= 93.37
