Explanation:

A manufacturer of computer memory chips produces chips in lots of 1000. If nothing has gone wrong in the manufacturing process, at most 7 chips each lot would be defective, but if something does go wrong, there could be far more defective chips. If something goes wrong with a given lot, they discard the entire lot. It would be prohibitively expensive to test every chip in every lot, so they want to make the decision of whether or not to discard a given lot on the basis of the number of defective chips in a simple random sample. They decide they can afford to test 100 chips from each lot. You are hired as their statistician.

There is a tradeoff between the cost of eroneously discarding a good lot, and the cost of warranty claims if a bad lot is sold. The next few problems refer to this scenario.

Problem 8. (Continues previous problem.) A type I error occurs if (Q12)

Problem 9. (Continues previous problem.) A type II error occurs if (Q13)

Problem 10. (Continues previous problem.) Under the null hypothesis, the number of defective chips in a simple random sample of size 100 has a (Q14) distribution, with parameters (Q15)

Problem 11. (Continues previous problem.) To have a chance of at most 2% of discarding a lot given that the lot is good, the test should reject if the number of defectives in the sample of size 100 is greater than or equal to (Q16)

Problem 12. (Continues previous problem.) In that case, the chance of rejecting the lot if it really has 50 defective chips is (Q17)

Problem 13. (Continues previous problem.) In the long run, the fraction of lots with 7 defectives that will get discarded erroneously by this test is (Q18)

Problem 14. (Continues previous problem.) The smallest number of defectives in the lot for which this test has at least a 98% chance of correctly detecting that the lot was bad is (Q19)

(Continues previous problem.) Suppose that whether or not a lot is good is random, that the long-run fraction of lots that are good is 95%, and that whether each lot is good is independent of whether any other lot or lots are good. Assume that the sample drawn from a lot is independent of whether the lot is good or bad. To simplify the problem even more, assume that good lots contain exactly 7 defective chips, and that bad lots contain exactly 50 defective chips.

Problem 15. (Continues previous problem.) The number of lots the manufacturer has to produce to get one good lot that is not rejected by the test has a (Q20) distribution, with parameters (Q21)

Problem 16. (Continues previous problem.) The expected number of lots the manufacturer must make to get one good lot that is not rejected by the test is (Q22)

Problem 17. (Continues previous problem.) With this test and this mix of good and bad lots, among the lots that pass the test, the long-run fraction of lots that are actually bad is (Q23)

Define and explain SMART?

SVEN [57.7K]

Being smart is something that's grown and cultivated, often by being curious enough to seek out new information and by recognising what you don't already know. Being smart is the ability to put ideas together, and create solutions to problems. Being smart is the ability to focus, concentrate, and communicate.

A mortgage broker advertises a 30-year fixed-rate loan at a 2.00% rate. After the borrower arrives at the office and begins an a

Contact [7]

Answer:

Truth in Lending Act (TILA)

Explanation:

Mortgage brokering can be defined as a process which typically involves a mortgage broker acting as an intermediary between a financial institution (mortgage bank) offering loans and an individual that seeks to collect a loan.

This ultimately implies that, a mortgage broker acts as an intermediary (middleman) by connecting a creditor (lender) to those seeking to get a loan (borrower).

The Truth in Lending Act (TILA) also known as Consumer Credit Protection Act (CCPA) is a federal law of the United States of America that was enacted by the 89th US Congress and signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on the 29th of May, 1968.

The main purpose of this federal law (Act) is to protect the consumer while using credit by mandating businesses to provide a full disclosure of the terms and conditions with respect to the credit.

According to the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), businesses are required to explain all collection fees, finance charges, late charges and interest charges up front before the time of service or application process commence.

In this scenario, a mortgage broker advertised a 30-year fixed-rate loan with an interest rate of 2.00%.

However, when the borrower arrived at the office of the mortgage broker and begins an application, the broker then went ahead to explain that the 2.00% interest rate is no longer available because his office was only able to do a limited number of them.

Thus, this broker is in violation of Truth in Lending Act (TILA).
