Answer:
A) ≈ 3.509 grams
B) The process is not capable because the lowest Cpk which is 1.89 ≈ 1.9 is far from the ideal 1.33 capability index number ( NO )
c) 1.051 ounces
Explanation:
A) The largest standard deviation ( in grams)
This can be calculated applying the capability index formula and according to the capability index formula the value at which a process is capable is at : 1.33
hence the largest standard deviation = upper limit - lower limit / 6 * 1.33
( 354 - 326 ) / 7.98 = 3.5087 ≈ 3.509 grams
B) we first calculate the process mean and std of the box
standard deviation =
std of the six-bar box = = 2.106
process mean = 6 * ( 1.03 * 28.33) = 175.079
the mean is not centered between the upper specification and the lower specification hence we will apply the formulae used in calculating the capability index for an uncentered process
Cpk = (upper value - process mean) / (3 * std of box),
= (187 - 175.079) / ( 3 * 2.106) = 11.921 / 6.318 = 1.89
Cpk = (process mean - lower value ) / (3*std of box)
= ( 175.079 - 153 ) / (3 * 2.106) = 22.079 / 6.318 = 3.49
The process is not capable because the lowest Cpk which is 1.89 ≈ 1.9 is far from the ideal 1.33 capability index number ( N0 )
c ) lowest setting
calculate the value of the mean using capability index of 1.33
Cpk = (upper value - mean ) / 3 * std
mean = 187 - 1.33 * 3 * 2.106
= 187 - 8.40 = 178.60 grams
Cpk = ( process mean - lower value ) / 3 * std
mean = 1.33 * 3 * 2.106 + 153
= 8.40 + 153 = 161.40 grams
the lowest setting in ounces
= 178.60 / ( 6 bar * 28 .33)
= 178.60 / 169.98 = 1.051 ounces
Answer: hello your question is poorly structured attached below is the missing graph and missing part of the question
Assume the government imposes a $1.00 excise tax on the sale of every 2 liter bottle of soda. The tax is to be paid by the producers of soda. The figure below shows the annual market for 2 liter bottles of soda before and after the tax is imposed.
answer :
a) $2 , 4 billion
b) $2.5
c) $1.5
d) 3 billion
e) $3 billion
Explanation:
a) equilibrium price = $2 per bottle
equilibrium quantity = 4 billion bottles
<u>b) After imposition of excise tax </u>
consumers will pay = $2.5
<u>c) The amount producers keep after the imposition of taxes </u>
= $2.5 - tax
= 2.5 - 1 = $1.5
<u>d) New equilibrium quantity ( after tax is imposed ) </u>
= 3 billion bottles ( from graph attached ) i.e. intersection of S2 and D
e)<u> Amount of tax revenue collected by the government from the imposition of tax </u>
= quantity of bottles sold * $1
= 3 billion * $1 = $3 billion
