a) In a certain electronic appliances industry, the acceptance sampling process is conducted to inspect the raw material shipments. The ICs and components are supplied by various vendors in huge quantities. In the inspections, the components are randomly selected and tested. At ABC Industries, the QC department accepts a lot if the defective chips and components are not more than 2.5%. Suppose that in a certain test, the quality control inspector picks 25 components from a huge shipment randomly and tests them. Assuming the probability of any component found defective remain the same from trial to trial, answer the following: i. Given that 2.3% of the whole shipment is defective. What is the probability that no items in the sample is found defective? What is the probability of getting 2 or more bad components in the sample if 3% of the shipment is defective? Refer to part ii, as a QC inspector would you accept a shipment if two items were found to be defective? Why or why not? ii. iii.

a) In a certain electronic appliances industry, the acceptance sampling process is conducted to
inspect the raw material shipments. The ICs and components are supplied by various vendors
in huge quantities. In the inspections, the components are randomly selected and tested. At
ABC Industries, the QC department accepts a lot if the defective chips and components are not
more than 2.5%.
Suppose that in a certain test, the quality control inspector picks 25 components from a huge
shipment randomly and tests them. Assuming the probability of any component found
defective remain the same from trial to trial, answer the following:
i. Given that 2.3% of the whole shipment is defective. What is the probability that no
items in the sample is found defective?
What is the probability of getting 2 or more bad components in the sample if 3% of the
shipment is defective?
ii.
ii. Refer to part ii, as a QC inspector would you accept a shipment if two items were found
to be defective? Why or why not?
iv. Calculate expected number of defective items and the standard deviation in parts i
and ii.
b) A leading automobile manufacturer received complaints about defective wiring which causes
fire in the latest model car. The company had thoroughly tested the car before launching and
based on the data from the previous model, it claims that such incidents were 2 in 20000
(probability = 0.0001). After the complaints, the company launched a thorough probe and
tested 300 new cars randomly selected after the production and 7 out of them had defective
wiring that might cause a fire.
i. Based on the given data above, use a probabilistic method to determine if the
company's claim of 2 defects in 20000 is correct. Use the binomial distribution for your
calculations.
ii. Repeat above calculation using the Poisson approximation.
Hints:
Average rate u can be calculated from µ=np
You have to calculate P(X27) in both cases and conclude your results.
