The standard time for a job is
Total work content
Base time + relaxation time
Total work content + basic time
Total work content + delay contingency allowance
If (R) is the base rate guaranteed per hour, (S) is the standard time for the job and (T) is the actual time, then according to Rowan plan, wages for the job will be
TR
TR + [(S - T)/2] × R
TR + (S - T) × R
TR + [(S - T)/S] × R
