Berringer Designs hired a graphic artist. It is estimated that the artist's learning rate is at 70% and her first quarter's output amounted to 300 relatively equal job outputs, which took her a total of 50 hours to complete. Output is expected to double in every succeeding quarter. By the 5th quarter, based on learning curve estimates, what should the artist's average time (in hours) be for the units of output? Multiple Choice 17.15 hours 3.5 hours 12.005 hours 6.9 hours None of the answers is correct

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?
