Answer:

The term has two distinct meanings–one is statistical; the other is a comprehensive quality system.

Explanation:

Here, the point fact states that it will take a six standard deviation from the mean for an error to happen.

Six Sigma evolved to define numerous ideas within the business sphere and is sometimes confusing. Firstly, it's a statistical benchmark. Any business process, which produces less than 3.4 defects per 1 million chances is said to be efficient. A defect is anything produced outside of consumer satisfaction. Second, it is a training and certification program, which teaches the core principles of Six Sigma. Practitioners may achieve the Six Sigma certification belt levels, ranging from white belt to black belt. Finally, it's a philosophy, which promotes the idea that all business processes can be measured and optimized.

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: resistance to change

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that InSeason Inc. started a chain of organic supermarkets that had initial success and that the managers achieved a mastery of the firm's current environment, thereby filling a need in the market.

We are further told that InSeason defined and measured it success by financial metrics, with a focus on short-term performance and that as a result, the firm put in place metrics and systems to accommodate and manage increasing firm size due to continued success.

As a result of this tightly coupled system, InSeason developed a resistance to change. Resistance to change could be as a result of fear of failure by the company.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

option d) approximately 84%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Mean, m = $92

Standard deviation, s = $13

Now,

we have to calculate percentage of homes will have a monthly utility bill of more than $79 i.e P(X > 79)

also,

P( X > 79) = 1 - P( X < 79)

Z-score for (X = 79 ) = \frac{X-m}{s}

Z = \frac{79-92}{13}

or

Z = -1

From the standard Z value vs P table, we have

P( Z < -1 ) = 0.1587

Thus,

P( X < 79) = P( Z < -1 ) = 0.1587

therefore,

P(X > 79) = 1 - 0.1587

or

P(X > 79) = 0.8413

or

= 0.8413 × 100%

= 84.13%

Hence,

option d) approximately 84%

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

How many units are in process at May 31?

physical units ending WIP:            740

equivalent units WIP materials:    740

equivalent units WIP conversion: 296

Explanation:

We will add the beginning and started units, then subtract the trasnaferrd out to get the ending WIP inventory.

physical units:

beginning             490

started                1,650

transferred-out<u> (1,400) </u>

ending                  740

Now we will multiply by the percentage of completion to get the equivlent units of WIP on each category:

<u>equivalent units for ending WIP:</u>

materials    740 x 100% = 740

conversion 740 x 40% = 296

The computation of Ending finished goods inventory after allocation of underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead is shown below:-

Ending finished goods inventory after allocation of overapplied manufacturing overhead

= (Total of finished goods - (Manufacturing overhead applied of finished goods ÷ Total of Manufacturing overhead applied) × Overapplied amount

= ($34,530 - ($6,240 ÷ $39,000) × $7,000)

= $34,530 - $1,120

= $33,410
