Answer 1

Answer:

Current Period Productivity= 3.7units/hour

Previous Period Productivity=  2.9units/hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Worker produced 185 units while working 50 hours.

In the previous week, the same worker produced 116 units while working 40 hours.

We will compute productivity based on units per hour.

Worker productivity= Total units/total hours

Current Period Productivity= 185/50= 3.7units/hour

Previous Period Productivity= 116/40= 2.9units/hour
