Entrees are set at a fixed price of $42.In a typical month the restaurant will serve 3,600 entrees.Monthly variable costs are $61,200, and fixed costs are$31,000 per month. Customers or waiters send back 8% ofthe entrees because of a defect, and they must be preparedagain; they cannot be reworked. The restaurant owners hired a qualified black belt to undertake a Six Sigma pro-ject at the restaurant to eliminate all defects in the prepara-tion of the entrees (i.e., 3.4 DPMO). Compare the profit in both situations, with and without defects, and indicate both the percentage decrease in variable costs and the percent-age increase in profits following the Six Sigma project. As-suming that the restaurant paid the black belt $25,000 to achieve zero defects, and the restaurant owners plan toamortize this payment over a three-year period (as a fixed cost), what is the restaurant return on its investment (with-out…arrow_forward

Student advising is a time consuming activity for faculty involved in the process and is particularly important for newly starting students. Also it is particularly difficult to schedule advising sessions for part-time students. A university developed and implemented a Web based system to help students select modules. The system is linked to the university-wide database of student records so that it can consider a list of all completed courses as well as student interests when making recommendations. The DSS (Decision Support System) adviser makes course suggestions while considering degree requirements, prerequisites, availability, and student interests. The system knows when courses will be offered and can analyse the transcript of transfer students…arrow_forwardHow could control charts, Pareto diagrams, and cause-andeffect diagrams be used to identify quality problems at a hotel?arrow_forward
