Question

Karen Paleno · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : True, Explanation :  A 90% learning curve means that for each doubling of production volume, the direct labor time per unit decreases by 10%. In other words, if the first unit takes 10 hours to produce, the second unit will take 9 hours, the fourth unit will take 8.1 hours, and so on.
