Correct answer: A. 0.642 unit of jacket per ² of leather

  • A. 0.642 unit of jacket per ² of leather
  • B. 0.342 unit of jacket per ² of leather
  • C. 0.442 unit of jacket per ² of leather
  • D. 0.542 unit of jacket per ² of leather

Explanation

Direct material productivity equals output divided by material input: 2,250,000 ÷ 3,500,000 = 0.642857, or approximately 0.642 jacket per square metre of leather. The other figures do not result from this division.
