The standard task completion time is 36 hours with 50 AeD per hour rate. Worker A completes the task
in 27 hours, Worker B in 36 hours, and Worker C in 17 hours. Calculate their wage using  Halsey and Rowan
methods.


The standard production is 40 units per day with 150 AED per unit rate.
At the end of the day, Worker D produced 68 units and Worker E produced 24 units.
Calculate their wage as per the following Merrick’s Plan:
1. Less than 65% standard production = Only basic wage is paid
2. 65% to 84% standard production = 10% of basic wage is paid as a bonus
3. 85% to 100% standard production = 15% of basic wage is paid as a bonus
4. More than 100% standard production = 20% of basic wage is paid as a bonus
