Suppose that the Dallas School District wants to achieve Six Sigma quality levels of performance in delivering students to schoo

Kay [80]

Answer:

a) 1.66 minutes

b) 3.4 out of million deliveries

Explanation:

So, it is a six sigma quality question, we first need to understand little bit about six sigma and how it is to achieve six sigma level.

Six Sigma:

It is the process or technique used by many organizations through out the world to achieve maximum quality in a product or in a service they are providing. It helps to indicate root causes of the process or you can say waste steps which first need to be identified then rectified to bring that top-notch quality in the system. So in this case, in order to calculate part a) we will calculate six sigma control limits.

a) So, for six sigma control limits, the maximum allowable standard deviation is 12 or you can say +6 + (-6) = ±6 = 12. It means all deviations must lie in all 12 standard deviations.

Please refer to the table shown in the attachment. This bell curve represent six sigma concept. In this 3 sigma quality level means all deviations must lie in 6 standard deviations.

So, here we have been given that mean = 20, so with mean we can calculate standard deviation in six sigma control limits.

Maximum Allowable Standard Deviation for 6 sigma = Mean/12

= 20/12

= 1.66

So, 1.66 is the maximum allowable standard deviation of arrival times required in order to achieve 6 sigma quality level.

b) In this part, we are asked that, out of million deliveries about how many times bus deliver students too early or too late at this 6 sigma quality level.

For this answer, please refer to attachment again. and notice at the left bottom with the arrow of 6 sigma, we have a number 3.4 ppm means 3.4 part per million.

So, it 3.4 times in a million deliveries bus will deliver students either too early or too late.

Peggy Lane Corp., a producer of machine tools, wants to move to a larger site. Two alternative locations have been identified

Alborosie

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Two alternative locations have been identified: Bonham and McKinney. Bonham would have fixed costs of $ 800,000 per year and variable costs of $ 13,000 per standard unit produced. McKinney would have annual fixed costs of $ 920,000 and variable costs of $ 12,000 per standard unit. The finished items sell for $ 29,000 each.

Costs:

Bonham= 800,000 + 13,000*x

McKinney= 920,000 + 12,000*x

1) 800,000 + 13,000*x=920,000 + 12,000*x

1,000x=120,00

x=120 units

2) Because Bonham has a higher variable cost, from the indifference point and below, it generates a higher profit. From 120 units and more it generates less profit than McKinney.

3) Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin

Bonham:

Break-even point= 800,000/(29,000 - 12,000)= 47 units

McKinney:

Break-even point= 920,000/(29,000-13,000)= 58 units

As a result of the organizing campaign at Champlain Products, the union obtained signed authorization cards from 41% of the empl

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Please see explanation below.

Explanation:

The next step is to conduct a secret ballot election which will be supervised by National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) as might be required by the employer-Champlain products inorder to obtain voluntary support from the employees that the union wants to represent. The reason being that the management might decided not to recognize the card checks practise on the basis that a union without a secret ballot election is not reliable hence employees that signed the card might have been intimidated or coerced by the union to do so.

Where the management refuses to recognize the card check that was signed by at least 41% of the employees it wants to represent, management would then request for secret ballot election where employees would be able to vote confidentially without coercion or undue influence from the union or co-workers.
