natural_slope_est: Natural Slope Estimate

Description

Computes the natural slope based on total time (cost) to produce the first n units, time (cost) required for the first unit and total units produced.

Usage

natural_slope_est(T, t, n)

Arguments

T

total time (or cost) required to produce the first n units

t

time (or cost) required to produce the first unit

n

total n units produced

Examples

# NOT RUN {
 
# Estimate the natural slope for 250 units when the time for unit
# one took 80 hours and the total time for all 250 units took
# 8,250 hours.

natural_slope_est(T = 8250, t = 80, n = 250)
