Learning Curve exercise

A manufacture has just produced the first unit. The first unit took 15,000 hours of labor to manufacture. The manufacture pays $50per hour for its labor. The manufacture knows from experience that this labor content will decrease significantly as more units are produced. In reviewing past production data, it appears that the manufacture has experienced an 85% learning curve when producing similar designs. The manufacture is interested in estimating the total time and cost to complete the next 20units. So, your job as the production cost estimator is to prepare the estimate.
