Answer:

The labor productivity is $80.63 per labor hour

Explanation:

Number of workers = 8

Worker payment = $10 per hour

Working hours in first week of march = 40 hours

Number of production of garments (Firsts) = 156 garments

Number of production of garments (seconds) = 54 garments

Remaining production = Firsts - seconds

= 156 - 54 = 102 garments

Price of seconds = $100

Price of remaining production = $200

Labor productivity = [(Number of seconds × price of seconds) + (Number of remaining × price of remaining)] ÷ (Number of laborers × hours per week)

= [(54 × 100) + (102 × 200)] ÷ (8 × 40)

= [ 5400 + 20,400] ÷ 320

= 25,800 ÷ 320

= $80.63
