    Hello,

    I’m trying to determine how they got 192/180*100%, in particular 192. The question is as follows:

    Standard time allowed per unit: 16 minutes
    Actual ouput in period 720 units
    Actual hours worked 180
    Budgeted hours 185

    determine, labour efficiency ratio, capacity ratio, and production volume ratio.

    Thanks,
    R

    The actual output was 720 units. Given that each unit should take 16 minutes, then they should have worked 720 x (16/60) = 192 hours.

    Therefore the efficiency ration is 192/180 = 106.7%

    Have you watched my free lectures on this? The lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
