Question 1

A certain product under development took 200 hours for the production of its 2nd unit and 180 hours for its 4th unit.

a. What is the learning rate?
b. How much time did the first unit take?
c. How much time would the production of the 10th unit take? (Use both the logarithmic and the Table E.3 approach. Do the two versions agree?)

Question 2

A contractor builds large ships for the Department of Defence. A recent contract called for 12 amphibious landing platforms. It was originally estimated that the first of these would cost $1 billion and that 80% learning would be appropriate. In fact, the first ship cost $1.6 billion and the second $1.12 billion. What is the revised learning rate? What will be the total cost of the twelve ships? Is it higher or lower than the original estimates? If the defence department cuts the contract from 12 ships to 9, what happens to the average cost per ship?
