The information below shows the data from 1 month's operation of a restaurant. Note the labor data is drawn across all direct labor (i.e. wait staff, bus boys, cooks, etc.)

Customers Served 3500

Average price of meals served $24.50

Total labor hours 1000hours

Average cost of labor $13.75/hour

Total cost of food purchased $10,000

Overhead Allocation 2.5xlabor cost

1. What is the multi-factor productivity of labor, material & overhead using output in Dollars?

2. What is the multi-factor productivity of labor, material & overhead using # of customers served as output? (Round answer to 4 decimal places)

3. Stating output in dollars, what are the single factor productivity values for labor and material (i.e calculate the productivity measures for labor and material individually. Carry 2 decimal places in the answer.)

Q1) 3,500 * $24.50= $85,750
1,000*$13.75+3,500*10,000+2.50*1,000*$13.75=
13,750+35,000,000+34,375= $35,048,125
$85,750/$35,048,125= 0.00244664
Q2) 3,500/35,048,125= 0.00009986

These are my answers so far, can someone check me to see if I am wrong, I'm stuck.

Please show work so that I may figure out where I went wrong.
