A pilot work study has been conducted on a new operation with four work elements. The following times, in seconds, were obtained using a time study

a. What is the normal time for this operation?
b. If an allowance of 20 percent is used, what is the standard time for this task?

Work Element Rating Factor Average Time Normal Times
1 1.10 13.0 14.3
2 1.05 28.0 29.4
3 0.85 10.0 8.5

a. Normal time = 14.3 + 29.4 + 8.5 = 52.2 seconds
b. Standard time = (52.2 )(1.20 ) = 62.64 seconds
