Final Answer : True, Explanation :  With a learning curve of 80%, the time required to complete a unit decreases by 20% each time the production quantity is doubled. Therefore, the second unit would take 0.8 times the time required for the first unit, which is 0.8 x 200 = 160 days.

If the first unit in a series of units takes 200 days to complete, and the learning curve is 80%, then the second unit will take 160 days.
