The following information is provided.

Single$-$factor productivity assumptions:

# of workers $=120(60$ dedicated pickers, $30$ material handlers, $30$ crew leaders and utility associates$)$

Pay rate $=60$ at $$18/$hour and $60$ at $$28/$hour

# of picks $=$ avg. $100$ picks per hour per worker

Multiple$-$factor productivity assumptions:

# of workers $=120$

Pay rate $=60$ at $$18/$hour and $60$ at $$28/$hour

# of picks $=$ avg. $100$ picks per hour per worker

Errors per hour$/$chargeback $($return freight and reship cost$)=11\%$ error rate per hour and the chargeback calculation is $$11$ per picked error.

$($Note: $11\%\backslash$times $100$ picks $\backslash$times $$11$ per picked error $\backslash$times $8$ hours per shift $\backslash$times $20$ shifts per month $\backslash$times $60$ pickers $=$ $$1,161,600$ per month$)$

Damage and theft $=$ $$5,500/$month

Single$-$factor productivity assumptions with robots:

# of workers $=60$

Pay rate $=$ avg. $$32/$hour

# of picks $=$ avg. $360$ picks per hour per worker

Multiple$-$factor productivity assumptions with robots:

# of workers $=60$

Pay rate $=$ avg. $$32/$hour

# of picks $=$ avg. $360$ picks per hour per worker

Errors per hour$/$chargeback $=0$ errors

Lease per robot $=$ $$2,400/$month

# of robots $=35$
