A job is known to have a learning percentage equal to 82. If the first unit had a completion time of20 hours, estimate the times that will be needed to complete the third and fourth units.

A new product made from recycled bio-plastics needs 20 labor hours to complete the build for the first unit. If production operates at a 85% learning curve rate, calculate the average labor hours required per unit to produce five units.

A new training program at Arid Industries is intended to lower the learning-curve coefficient of a certain molding operation that currently costs $95.50/hour. The current coefficient is .87, and the program hopes to lower the coefficient by 10%. Assume that the time to mold the first product is 8 hours. If the program is successful, what cost savings will be realized when the 2000th piece is produced?

A newly established electric car company estimates that the manufacturing time for their 4th car to be 77.0 hours. Given an 85.0 learning percentage and a labor/overhead cost of $650 per hour, what's the total labor/overhead cost for the first set of 10 cars of the run
