An 80 per cent learning curve means that at each doubling of cumulative output the unit time falls to

  • A.80 per cent of its previous value
  • B.20 per cent of its previous value
  • C.80 per cent of the first unit's value
  • D.a value 80 units lower than before

Answer: A

It is a proportional reduction applied repeatedly, so the first unit's hundred hours become eighty at unit two, sixty-four at unit four and 51.2 at unit eight. A lower percentage means faster learning, which is the opposite of what the number suggests at first sight.
