Susan is a production manager at a local manufacturing company.She has been collecting per unit cycle time data on a product andhas been able to determine that the 15th unit required 45 hours tocomplete. This product is known to follow a 66% learning curve. Sheneeds to estimate the cycle time required to complete the 1st and50th units. Please compute these values.
Expert Answer
Time required for 15th unit, T15 = 45 hours
Using learning equation, T15 = T1*r^(ln(15)/ln(2)), where T1 isthe time taken to complete the 1st unit and r is learning rate
Therefore, T1 = T15/(r^(ln(15)/ln(2))
= 45/(.66^3.907)
= 228.2 hours
