Suad Alwan, the purchasing agent for Dubai Airlines, is interested in determining what he can expect to pay for airplane number 4 if the third plane took 20,000 hours to produce. What would Alwan expect to pay for plane number 5? Number 6? Use an 85% learning curve and a $40-per-hour labor charge.

Alwan expect to pay for airplane 4= $747818.48

Explanation:

given data

expect to pay airplane =  4

3rd plane produce = 20,000 hours

learning curve = 85%

solution

As here logarithmic approach allow get labor for any unit, TN,  as

TN = T1(Nb)

here TN is time for the Nth unit  and T1 is hours to produce the first unit  

so

b  = (log of the learning rate) ÷ (log 2) = slope of the learning curve

so

T3 = T1(3log(0.85)÷log2)

so we get

So Alwan expect to pay for airplane 4 = $747818.48

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
