    So sorry to bother you John,
    But the question is about how quickly the workers were able to learn not how long it took them to produce 8 units. You thought us how to calculate time taken to produce any unit.
    But at the end of the second lecture on learning curve u thought us how to calculate learning rate of producing a product.

    Thank you John.
    I quite understand now.
    The $3 is gotten by subtracting the expected selling price ($8) from the unit cost of Sale ($5) then this will be used to multiply the sales unit per month until we get to break even.
    Thank you. 🙂

    I’m sorry I didn’t realize i did not call out the question,
    The question is:
    The costs for design and development of a new product are expected to be $800,000. The time from original product concept to market launch will be 8 months. the expected selling price for the product is $8 per unit and the unit cost of sale will be $5. Expected sales per month in the period after product lunch are:

    MONTH SALES
    1 40,000
    2 60000
    3 80,000
    4 100,000
    What is the break even time for this product?
    Please can you help me now please…
    Thank you.

    Sir,
    For the same question as above (Life Cycle Test question 2)
    I thought the total life cycle cost per unit is supposed to be divided by estimated total sales i.e

    (50,000+(100000*5)+10,000)= 560,000

    560000/100,000=5.6.
    Please correct me if I’m wrong.
