The Question/

If the normal time is 1.30 min for a repetitive task that produces one work unit per cycle, and the company uses a PFD allowance factor of 12%, determine (a) the standard time for the task and (b) how many work units are produced in an 8-hour shift at standard performance.

Normal Time - The time to complete a task when working at normal performance - Actual time to perform the cycle depends on worker performance Tc=Tn/Pw where Tc= cycle time, Tn= normal time, and Pw= worker performance or pace Standard Time Defined as the normal time but with an allowance added into account for losses due to personal time, fatigue, and delays Tstd=Tn(1+Apfd) where Tstd= standard time, Tn= normal time, and Apfd= PFD allowance factor
