Q. Earnings differing at different levels of the output?
Earnings differing at different levels of the output: this group includes several schemes. These systems can be best explained by describing how earnings vary from minimum to maximum At different levels of o/p. Earning for the one part of the range may vary proportionality less than o/p and for the another part more, or more usually in the same proportion as the o/p. The Taylor's differential piece rate system, the Merrick differential piece rate system the Gantt Task system, the Emerson's efficiency system and the accelerating premium system fall under the category where earnings differ at different levels of the output.
