A wage incentive plan pays workers a daily wage at a rate of $$15\mathrm{.}00/$hr multiplied by the

number of standard hours accomplished during the shift. One worker$-$machine task in the

plant includes worker$-$paced elements totaling a normal time of $1\mathrm{.}00$ min and machine$-$

paced elements with a time of $3\mathrm{.}00$ min. The PFD allowance is $15\%.$Which is fair? A PFD allowance of $15\%$ equates to a lost time per day of $62\mathrm{.}6$

min in an $8-$hour shift, which leaves an actual working time of $417\mathrm{.}4$ min. Of this time,

machine time took $115$ cycles x $3\mathrm{.}00$ min$/$cycle $345$ min, which leaves $417\mathrm{.}434572\mathrm{.}4$ Determine the stan$-$

dard time for the task given that $($a$)$ Am $0$ and $($b$)$ Am $30\%.($c$)$ What does a worker

earn for the day under each policy if he or she produces $115$ parts that day?
