Grader Company manufactures road graders. Because its managers all have engineering backgrounds, they prefer nonfinancial information for their decision-making models. Therefore, they require the accountants gather data to assist in the examination of nonfinancial results of operations. The following information relates to the manufacture of a paver:

   2011   2012
   Units produced and sold   6,800   5,600
   Direct manufacture labor-hours   136,000   115,200
   Direct materials used (tons)   29,000   24,400
   Direct manufacture cost per hour   $21   $22
   Direct materials cost per ton   $431   $443

Required:
a.   What is the partial productivity for direct materials for each year?
b.   What is the partial productivity for direct manufacturing labor for each year?
c.   What is the total factor productivity for each year?
