Explanation / Answer

Productivity rate = Actual volume / (Actual scheduled hrs. + Actual overtime hrs.)

Volume for the last 7 days was = 584,413

Forecast for next 7 days = 584,413 *(100% + 10%) = 642,854.3

Productivity rate will remain the same i.e. 47.3

So, if we assume overtime to be zero, the required scheduled hrs. = 642,854.3 / 47.3 = 13,591
