Computed Standard Time for entire job = 82.66 (11.65 + 41.21 + 21.42 + 8.36)

A time study was conducted on a job that contains four elements. The observed times and performance
ratings for six cycles are shown in the following table. Assuming allowance factor of 15% of job time.
Compute the standard time for this job.
