The labor time for successive units produced is plotted in the graph shown below. What is the learning percentage reflected by this graph?
What will be an ideal response?
The first unit takes 20 units of time and the 16th unit takes 8.19 of the same time units. From the first to the 16th unit there are four doublings of output, each with an identical reduction in percentage of time needed for the last unit. In the absence of the classic learning curve formula, a student might set up a goal seek in Excel to find the appropriate learning curve percentage or use a trial and error approach with POM for Windows.
