In the formula to compute the time for the Nth unit, T_N= T₁₍N^b), the exponent b is the learning curve rate L, expressed as a decimal.

Question

The exponent b in the formula is related to the learning curve rate, but it is not the learning curve rate itself. Instead, b is calculated from the learning curve rate (L), typically using the formula b = log(L) / log(2), where L is the learning rate expressed as a decimal fraction (e.g., 80% efficiency would be 0.8).
