Q: You purchased from your friend a specific model of a machine to do a specific job that this model cannot do, your friend did not explain what the capabilities of the purchased model are. You also never asked your friend before the purchase. Which type of the three mistakes, that we covered, this scenario can be classified under? Explain the other two and support your explanation with examples.

Madhu Ranadive, president of Davisville Toy Company, Inc., in Stratford, Ontario, has just reviewed the design of a new pull-toy locomotive for 1- to 3-year-olds. Madhu’s design and marketing staff are very enthusiastic about the market for the product and the potential of follow-on circus train cars. Madhu’s production people have worked out the manufacturing issues and produced a successful pilot run. However, the quality testing staff suggests that under certain conditions, a hook to attach cars to the locomotive and the crank for the bell can be broken off. This is an issue because children can choke on small parts. In the quality test, 1- to 3-year-olds were unable to break off these parts and there were no failures. But when the test simulated the force of an adult tossing the locomotive into a toy box or a 5-year-old throwing it on the floor, there were failures. The estimate is that one of the two parts can be broken off four times out of 100 000 throws. Neither the design nor…

You are in charge of a large assembly shop that specializes in contract assignments. One of your customers has promised to award you a large contract for the assembly of 1,000 units of a new product. The suggested bid price in the contract is based on an average of 20 hours of direct labor per unit. You conduct a couple of test assemblies and find that, although the first unit took 50 hours, the second unit could be completed in just 40 hours. a. How many hours do you expect the assembly of the third unit to take? b. How many hours do you expect the assembly of the 100th unit to take? c. Is the contract’s assumption about the average labor hours per unit valid or should the price be revised?

39 The Svenson Furniture Company sells a popular coffee table that comes unassembled and includes three baskets to into the lower part of the assembled table. The percentage of good quality tables is 80%. It costs $32.00 to manufacture one table. Of the defective tables, 70% can be reworked at an additional cost of $9. If the company wants to yield 120 units per week, how many tables should they plan to build per week? Round to the nearest whole number to achieve this goal.

Give two examples of unethical conduct involving product or service design and the ethical principles (see Chapter 1) that are violated.
