1) Some degree of variability is present in almost all processes.

 

2) The purpose of process control is to detect when natural causes of variation are present.

 

3) A normal distribution is generally described by its two parameters: the mean and the range.

 

4) A process is said to be in statistical control when assignable causes are the only sources of variation.

 

5) Mistakes stemming from workers’ inadequate training represent an assignable cause of variation.

 

6) Averages of small samples, not individual measurements, are generally used in statistical process control.

 

7) The x-bar chart indicates that a gain or loss of uniformity has occurred in dispersion of a production process.

 

8) The Central Limit Theorem states that when the sample size increases, the distribution of the sample means will approach the normal distribution.

 

9) In statistical process control, the range often substitutes for the standard deviation.

 

10) If the process average is in control, then the process range must also be in control.

 

11) A process range chart illustrates the amount of variation within the samples.

 

12) Mean charts and range charts complement one another, one detecting shifts in process average, the other detecting shifts in process dispersion.

 

13) X-bar charts are used when we are sampling attributes.

 

14) To measure the voltage of batteries, one would sample by attributes.

 

15) A p-chart is appropriate to plot the number of typographic errors per page of text.

 

16) A c-chart is appropriate to plot the number of flaws in a bolt of fabric.

 

17) The x-bar chart, like the c-chart, is based on the exponential distribution.

 

18) A process that is in statistical control will always yield products that meet their design specifications.

 

19) The higher the process capability ratio, the greater the likelihood that process will be within design specifications.

21) Acceptance sampling accepts or rejects an entire lot based on the information contained in the sample.

 

22) A lot that is accepted by acceptance sampling is certified to be free of defects.

 

23) In acceptance sampling, a manager can reach the wrong conclusion if the sample is not representative of the population it was drawn from.

 

24) The probability of rejecting a good lot is known as consumer’s risk.

 

25) An acceptance sampling plan must define “good lots” and “bad lots” and specify the risk level associated with each one.

 

26) The acceptable quality level (AQL) is the average level of quality we are willing to accept.

 

27) The steeper an OC curve, the better it discriminates between good and bad lots.

24) A bank’s manager has videotaped 20 different teller transactions to observe the number of mistakes being made.  Ten transactions had no mistakes, five had one mistake and five had two mistakes.  Compute proper control limits at the 90% confidence level.

 

25) A department chair wants to monitor the percentage of failing students in classes in her department.  Each class had an enrollment of 50 students last spring.  The number of failing students in the 10 classes offered that term were 1, 4, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, and 3, respectively.  Compute the control limits for a p-chart at the 95% confidence level.  Is the process in control?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

26) A city police chief decides to do an annual review of the police department by checking the number of monthly complaints.  If the total number of complaints in each of the 12 months were 15, 18, 13, 12, 16, 20, 5, 10, 9, 11, 8, and 3 and the police chief wants a 90% confidence level, are the complaints in control?

 

27) A consultant has been brought in to a manufacturing plant to help apply six sigma principles.  Her first task is to work on the production of rubber balls.  The upper and lower spec limits are 21 and 19 cm respectively.  The consultant takes ten samples of size five and computes the sample standard deviation to be .7 cm and the sample  mean to be 19.89 cm.  Compute Cp and Cpk for the process.  Give the consultant advice on what to do with the process based on your findings.

 

28) A car mechanic is thinking of guaranteeing customers that an oil change will take no more than 15 minutes with a 99.73% confidence level.  He takes a few samples of size 5 and finds the process mean to be 13 minutes with a standard deviation of .2 minutes and average sample range of 1.2 minutes.  Find the A2, D4, and D3 values and use them to compute the upper and lower limits for an x-bar chart.  Use the upper limit to determine if the mechanic can offer a 15 minute guarantee. Assume the mechanic plots the samples on the x-bar control chart and finds the process is in control, is there anything else the mechanic is missing to ensure the process is in control?

 

29) At your first job out of college you have been assigned to the production of bottled 20 oz. soda.

 

The process has upper and lower limits of 20.5 and 19.5 oz, respectively, with a mean of 19.8 oz

 

and standard deviation of .3 oz. Your manager has requested the process produce no more than 3.4

 

defects per 1 million bottles produced.  Calculate Cpk and then determine if the process is capable

 

or if you should be looking for assignable variation.

 

30) A retail store manager is trying to improve and control the rate at which cashiers sign customers up for store credit cards.  Suppose that the manager wants the maximum standard deviation of the sampling distribution to be 5% and he cannot estimate p-bar.  How many observations per sample would this require?

 

31) A retail store manager is trying to improve and control the rate at which cashiers sign customers up

 

for store credit cards.   Suppose the manager takes 10 samples, each with 100 observations.  P-bar

 

is found to be .05, and the manager does not want a lower limit below .0064.  What z-value would

 

this imply, and how confident can he be that the true lower limit is greater than or equal to .0064?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

32) A retail store manager is trying to improve and control the rate at which cashiers sign customers up

 

for store credit cards.  After posting a p-chart of the store’s credit card sign-ups the manager takes

 

new samples of size 50 three weeks later.  He finds that each sample of 50 contained 5 credit card

 

signups on average.  Find p-bar and 99.73% control limits.
