Summary Introduction
To calculate: Autocorrelations for lag 1 to lag 10.
Autocorrelation
Autocorrelation shows the similarity between a time series and the lagged version of time series. This is also called as serial correlation. This is calculated for lags of certain time period.

2. A beverage company would like to use a mean chart to monitor how much liquid
beverage it puts into each 500-ml bottle. They know from experience that whenever this
process is under control, bottle weight is normally distributed with a mean of 500 ml and
a standard deviation of 2 ml. The company plans to measure samples of 30 bottles from
the production lineevery hour and record the mean weight of liquid beverage in the
bottles. If the company uses z = 3 as its standard for establishing the mean chart, where
will the upper and lower control limits be on the chart? (Noteshaper: Scenario #28)

Webster Chemical’s nominal weight for filling tubes of caulk is 8.00 ounces ± 0.60 ounces. The target process capability ratio is 1.33. The current distribution of the filling process is centered on 8.054 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.192 ounces. Compute the process capability ratios Cp and Cpk to assess whether the filling process is capable and set properly.

Statistical process control, hypothesis testing, and control charts Consumers value prompt service when they order takeout or delivered pizza, and pizza restaurants compete for customers by making time promises. Papa John's, for instance, offers a 10-minute takeout guarantee. Domino's advertises a 30-minute delivery time. Suppose that the quality control manager at a nationwide pizza chain defines this production variable: An order is processed on time or late. Every night, a random sample of pizza orders is selected, and data are collected on the production variable for each order in the sample. To detect a change in the number of orders that are late, the quality control manager uses Based on the control chart, the quality control manager decides that the variation in output is due to assignable causes. Consequently, the manager concludes that the production process is ; it is Statistical procedures for process control use a hypothesis-testing framework. The null and alternative…arrow_forward
