Question

productivity help

Answer 1

The weekly output of a fabrication process is shown below together with data for labor and
material inputs. Standard selling price is $125 per unit. Overhead (OH) is allocated at the rate of
2.5 times direct labor cost and 10% of material cost. Assume a 40-hour week and an hourly wage
of $16. Material cost is $10 per foot. What is the average multifactor productivity? Report four
significant figures.
Hints: similar to problem on page 59.
Calculate the M.F. Productivity for each week then take the average
Numerator and denominator are both expressed in $, so your answer has no units (just a number).
Denominator factors include: labor, material, OH(labor), OH(material)

Answer 4

You didn't attach the data. It should probably come in some form of a table.
I had a feeling something is missing, because there is no information about the rate units are produced..
I found a similar question here:

Look at question 62. it is very close to what you have. You can see it comes with a table of data below.
