Workers production formula

Post by Guest » 03.01.2008, 01:16

I'm currently trying to set up an Excel model to facilitate my Kapilands business :)

I found on kapi wiki that the formula for calculating the production per additional worker by n^0.9855. However, I'm getting completely wrong results with this and it seems that the productivity per worker goes down with each additional worker.

Is there a commonly known formula for this?

That's not quite right.

According to this thread (available from the guide to guides if you ever need to find it again) the forumula is actually this:

(production per employee)*(employees)*(0.995112^(employees-1))

So the (n-1) exponent does in fact bring that term down, but it's multiplied by the increasing employees number. So overall, each worker adds less than the one before, but still adds.
