The process of d. The process of e. The idea of consistentlhy process controls so they better understand randoen variables and in matistical concepts trengths and weaknesses factors producing goods or services in accordance with design specifications 19. Complete the following sentence by inserting the phrase in the indicated space that makes the saiement true While monitoring a a large interval willis in a state of tatistical coutrol, a cootrol chart thir uses a a identify the process as b. identify the process as in control more ofen . both a and b e. more information is required d. neither a nor b control more often 20, while four important concepts of using a control chart for monitoring a production process, one shouid examine a sical process control. These four concepts include all of the following excepe a. the expected versus the actual number of observations excceding the upper and lower control limits of consecutive observations falling on one side of center line) in the plotted observations c the hypercolinearity d. trends in plotted observations e. variability of the plotted observations statistical index value of the plotted observations uct quality has been enhanced due to a variety of new produetion practices. Which of the following factors has not contributed to increased product quality? 21. Prod a part redundancies b. quality circles c. reduced number of parts in new product designs d. automation and robot technology e. reliance upon wider limits in statistical process control charts 22. Shown below is a control chart determined from attribute data. Given this chart and the plotted observations, the most appropriate action would be: Upper Control Limit 06 Mean Proportion Defective .03 02 x .01 .00 Lower Control Limit 1 2345 6789 Sampie Number a take immediate action to identify potential causes of assignable variation. b. take immediate action to identify potential causes of random (statistical) variation. c calcuiate the process capability index to verify it is greater than five. d do nothing since the process appears in control. e caiculate the process capability index to verify it is less then one.

Explanation / Answer

17.

[c]

As per TQM, the management structure should be less hierarchical.

18.

[a]

It is about comparing the level of outcomes with that of some other company.

19.

[b]

If the confidence interval expands, there is lesser chance that the points fall outside of the control limits.

20.

[c]

Hypercollinearity

21.

[e]

Wider limits of control charts will not help produce higher quality products. It will, in fact, increase the chance of defective parts production.

22.

[d]

Do nothing because no significant trend is formed regarding the variability of the process.
