Chapter 3, Problem 53E

Continuation of Exercise 3.52. Reconsider the power supply manufacturing process in Exercise 3.52. Suppose we wanted to improve the process. Can shifting the mean reduce the number of nonconforming units produced? How much would the process variability need to be reduced in order to have all but one out of 1000 units conform to the specifications?

Part II- COMPUTING: Answer the following as indicated. Round off your answer to three decimal places. Draw the control charts using R or MS Excel. 12. A company is monitoring the percentage of line items that are shipped correctly from a major supplier. They have collected data for the past 25 weeks. Each week the number of line items shipped from the supplier is determined as well as the number of line items shipped correctly. The data for the past 25 weeks are shown in the table. Construct and interpret the p chart based on average sample size. Show details of the calculations of the control limits and the center line.

Using excel. For the Hawkins Company, the monthly percentages of all shipments received on time over the past 12 months are 80, 82, 84, 83, 83, 84, 85, 84, 82, 83, 84, and 83. a. Compare the three-month moving average approach with the exponential smoothing approach for α=\alpha =α= .2. Which provides more accurate forecasts using MSE as the measure of forecast accuracy? b. What is the forecast for next month? Please show work
a)Given the data 63, 64, 66, 67, 67, 69, 71, 72 are the units of actual sales of TV in the last eight periods. Find the forecast for the ninth period using simple exponential smoothing.Use α = 0.3 and initial forecast using simple average of last eight months. b)The sales of a company (in million dollars) for each year are shown in the table below. Find the linear sales trend line.x (year) 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009y (sales) 12     19       29      37    45       plz i need these answers within 4 hrs i need to submit them do the questions manually without using excel or minitab
