Compute the multifactor productivity measure for each of the weeks shown for production of chocolate bars. Assume 40-hour weeks and an hourly wage of $16. Overhead is 15 times weekly labor cost. Material cost is $9 per pound (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

The hourly wage rate is $20, the overhead rate is 1.25 times labor cost, and material cost is $4 per customer Unit A B C D Employees 3 6 6 4 Customers Processed / Day 38 45 58 32 a. Compute the labor productivity and the multifactor productivity for each unit. Use an eight-hour day for multifactor productivity (Round your "Labor Productivity" answers to 1 decimal place and "Multifactor Productivity" answers to 3 decimal places.)

Suppose a new, more standardized procedure is to be introduced that will enable each employee to process one additional customer per day. Compute the expected labor and multifactor productivity rates for each unit. (Round your "Labor Productivity answers to 1 decimal place and "Multifactor Productivity" answers to 3 decimal places.)
