Answer:
The Dulac Box
Productivity is now approximately:____.
= 75 boxes/hr
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of shifts per day = 2
Each shift works 8 hours
Total hours worked each day = 16 hours
Number of cypress packing boxes produced each day = 1,000
Productivity per hour = 62.5 boxes/hr (1,000 boxes/16 hours)
Increase in productivity from the use of new technology = 20%
Therefore, the number of cypress packing boxes produced each day will increase by 20% to 1,200 boxes (1,000 * 1.2)
New Productivity per hour = 75 boxes/hr
