Answer:

Production = 120 boxes

Efforts : 4 people multiply 10 hrs each per day = 40 hr per day

a) Productivity = production per unit time per person = 120/40 = 3 boxes per hr per person

b) new production = 125 boxes per day

New productivity = 125/40 = 3.125 boxes per hr per person

c) unit increase in productivity per hour = (3.125-3) = 0.125 box per hr per person = 0.125 multiply with 4 = 0.5 box per hr

d) percentage change in productivity = [tex](3.125-3) / 3 * 100[/tex] =  4.16%
