Hi sir,
I am doing kaplan f5 exam kit i am doing a question of quantitative analysis in budgeting qn no 114.
The qn is:The time for the first unit produced was 100 hrs. The time for the second unit was 90 hrs.
What is the learning rate?The way i did it was
Units. cum avg time. total time
1. 100 hrs. 100 hrs
2. r*100=90. (90*2)180R=learning rate
The final answer given in the exam kit was 95%
I dont know where i went wrong. Please Kindly guide me.October 19, 2017 at 8:55 am #412429If the first takes 100 hours and the second takes 90 hours, then the total time for two is 190 hours. Therefore the average time per unit is 190/2 = 95 hours.
Therefore the learning rate is 95/100 = 95%.I do suggest that you watch my free lecture on this, because I work through (and explain) a very similar example.
The lectures are a complete free course for Paper F5 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
