Each month contains 20 working days, each of which allows for 3 separate 8 hour shifts. a. If a worker can produce 10 parts/hour, what is the minimum number of workers needed? [BlankA] b. If material costs are $10/part, capital costs are $100,000 and labor costs are $10/hour, what is the multifactor productivity of the plant from part (a)? [BlankB] c. Suppose the plant could increase to 120,000 parts per month by increasing capital costs by $15,000 (and no other changes were needed). What would be the new multifactor productivity [blankC] and percent change (compared to your answer to question b)? [Blankd]
