<u>Nothing</u> has happened to productivity at the Dulac Box plant because the same number of cypress packing boxes are produced per labor hour.
<h3>What is productivity?
</h3>
Productivity refers to the efficiency, resourcefulness, or creativity achieved in producing more units of goods and services using fewer production resources.
Productivity can be measured as the quantity of output per unit of input.
For example, the labor productivity at the Dulac Box plant was initially 25 boxes per labor hour under the two 10-hour shifts. When the plant introduced the three 8-hour shifts, total production units increased from 500 to 600 without any increase in productivity.
<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>
Old production units = 500 boxes
Labor-hours used = 20 (10 x 2) hours
New productivity per labor hour = 25 boxes per hour (500/20)
New production units = 600 boxes
Labor-hours used = 24 (8 x 3) hours
New productivity per labor hour = 25 boxes per hour (600/24)
Thus, there is <u>no change</u> in productivity with the change in shifts.
