The learning curve effect implies that each time production doubles, the cost per unit decreases by a certain percentage. With a 65% learning curve, the cost of the 20th lot can be calculated using the formula: Cost of nth unit = Initial cost * (n^log(learning rate)/log(2)). Plugging in the values, the cost of the 20th lot is approximately $466.20.
