Assume that the scheme was introduced and that in the month of January 2002 the production staff worked for a total of 4200 basic hours. During the month assume that 500 units of Product X were made of which 50 units were rejected as faulty. The basic rate of pay will remain at $3 per hour.In order to calculate the bonus a standard product time of 10 hours is to be allowed for each good unit of Product X.
Bonus = Time saved × 50% basic rate per hourCalculate the total bonus that would be payable to the production staff for January 2002
Need help with this calculations for the bonus
