Answer:

27.78%

Explanation:

Missing word "The production facility operates strictly eight hours per day. 5 people work daily in the plant."

In the earlier scenario, furniture maker manufactured 77 (72 non defective) pieces per 5 laborers working 8 hours day. Thus, the productivity in terms of units per labor hour is:

= 72 / 5*8

= 72 / 40

= 1.8

Similarly, after the process improvement, the productivity in units per labor hour would be:

= 92 / 5*8

= 92 / 40

= 2.3

Thus, change in productivity would be calculated as:

= (2.3 - 1.8)/1.8

= 0.27777778

= 27.78%

The productivity of non defective parts would increase by 27.78%
