A quality analyst wants to construct a control chart for determining whether three machines, all producing the same product, are

in control with regard to a particular quality variable. Accordingly, he sampled four units of output from each machine, with the following results.
Machine 1 Measirement 17 15 15 17
Machine 2 Measurement 16 25 18 25
Machine 3 Measurement 23 24 23 22

It is known from previous experience that the standard deviation of a typical machine is measured as 2.1067. What are the Mean chart three-sigma upper and lower control limits?

a. 22 and 18
b. 23.16 and 16.84
c. 22.29 and 16.71
d. 23.5 and 16.5
e. 24 and 16

Answer:

b. 23.16 and 16.84

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

The Mean of each and every sample (X-bar) is

= Sum of observations  Number of observations

And,

Range (R) = (Highest observation - Lowest observation)  

For Machine 1:

X-bar = (17 + 15 + 15 + 17) ÷ 4

= 16

R = (17 - 15)

= 2

For Machine 2:

X-bar = (16 + 25 + 18 + 25) ÷ 4

= 21

R = (25 - 16)

= 9

For Machine 3:

X-bar = (23 + 24 + 23 + 22) ÷ 4

= 23

R = (24 - 22)

= 2

Now, the Mean of means (X-double bar) is determined as follows

X-double bar = Sum of X-bar ÷ Number of samples

 = (16 + 21 + 23) ÷ 3

= 20

The Mean of ranges (R-bar) is determined as follows  

R-bar = Sum of R ÷ Number of samples

= (2 + 9 + 2) ÷  3

= 4.33

with reference to the table of constants for determining the 3-sigma upper and lower control limits,

 n = 4  that represent the Number of units sampled  

A2 = 0.729,

Now

UCL = X-double bar + (A2 × R-bar)

= 20 + (0.729 × 4.33)

= 23.16

LCL = X-double bar - (A2 × R-bar)

 = 20 - (0.729 × 4.33)

= 16.84

I think this is a true or false question 
The above statement is true. 
As we can see that there are always some sort of affinity among people some have highly positive towards some and negative towards others so they will try to group up with the ones they like but this would always lead to dissatisfaction of some people in group as they will feel unfair as they are not in group they wanted but in random assignment no one has control so even if they are unsatisfied they cant blame it on others. So there are lesser differences

When interest rates on treasury bills and other financial assets are low, the opportunity cost of holding money is _________, so
o-na [289]

When interest rates on treasury bills and other financial assets are low, the opportunity cost of holding money is <u>low </u>so the quantity of money demanded will be <u>high</u>.

If interest rates go up, the demand for money will go down. Once it equals the new money supply, there will be no more difference between how much money people are holding and how much they want to keep, and the story is over. This is why (and how) a decline in the money supply raises interest rates.

As interest rates rise, the amount of money demanded decreases because the opportunity cost of holding money decreases. As interest rates rise, aggregate demand shifts to the left. The interest rate effect arises from the idea that higher price levels reduce the real value of household holdings.

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Variable Cost  -$448,000  

Explanation:

The contribution margin formula it's : Net Sales - Variable Costs: Contribution Margin

The contribution margin indicates how much money the company has to cover its expenses not included in the cost of the goods or the variable costs, it is the remaining amount that is used to pay the administrative and sales expenses.

In this case:

Sales : 16.000 x $40 (price) = $640,000

Contribution Margin 30% which means 30%*$640,000 = $192,000

The difference it's the Variable Costs = -$448.000
