In the past, Alpha Corporation has not performed incoming quality control inspections but has taken the word of its vendors. However, Alpha has been having some unsatisfactory experience recently with the quality of purchased items and wants to set up sampling plans for the receiving department to use.
For a particular component, X, Alpha has a lot tolerance percentage defective of 10 percent. Zenon Corporation, from which Alpha purchases this component, has an acceptable quality level in its production facility of 3 percent for component X. Alpha has a consumer's risk of 10 percent and Zenon has a producer's risk of 5 percent.
When a shipment of Product X is received from Zenon Corporation, what sample size should the receiving department test? Use Exhibit 10.16. Note: if the exact value of the computed LTPD ÷ AOQ ratio does not appear in Exhibit 10.16, use the next higher ratio.
Note: Round up your answer to the next whole number.

The National Cancer Institute Study As a result of the Vioxx withdrawal, the researchers conducting the cancer study for the NCI began a review of the patient trials in October. After 6 weeks of investigation the researchers had identified six patients with cardiac events in the placebo group, 15 in the 400 milligram group, and 20 in the 800 milligram group. The researchers presented their findings to a safety review panel of cardiologists on December 10, 2004. After reviewing the data, the panel was concerned. The NCI then informed the FDA, NIH, and Pfizer. The NIH notified the researchers conducting the other studies. The panel recommended that the NCI study be halted, and researchers did so. Pfizer learned of the results on Thursday, December 16, in a call from the NCI, and Pfizer CEO Henry McKinnell was called at his home at 7:00 p.m. that evening. McKinnell immediately arranged a conference call with Pfizer’s regulatory team for 8:00 p.m.49 After the Vioxx withdrawal…

- i) The concept of quality is considered to have evolved through stages. However, quality is used to describe a prestigious product. It is one that fits the intended customer’s requirements. Impliedly, the product should possess attributes that enables it meet the customer’s requirement or specification. Now, in identifiably distinctive manner, differentiate quality control from the others or quality assurance. ii) Briefly define hazard, when uncertainty is defined as being a situation in which the determination of risk factors is not possible. It is difficult therefore to calculate the effect of uncertainty upon the tender, and a discussion of uncertainty is out of place here. A builder will see risks in two distinct categories: (a). those that can be insured against and,( b). those that cannot be insured against.arrow_forwardExplain the steps of FMEA Step 1: Preparation for FMEA Step 2: Path-1 development (Process function through Severity Ranking) Step 3: Path-1 development (Potential causes and prevention controls through occurrence ranking) Step 4: Path-1 development (testing and detecting controls through detection ranking) Step 5: Action priority and assignment Step 6: Action taken / design review Step 7: Re-ranking RPN and closurearrow_forwardWhat Is acceptable quality level (AQL)?arrow_forward
- A Brisbane warehouse buys pre-packed bulk bags of Bundaberg Sugar with an advertised mean weight of 20 kilograms. To determine the validity of the advertised claim, the warehouse manager took a random sample of 55 packets from the latest shipment and found an average weight of the packets of 20.011 kilograms. Bundaberg Sugar know, from analysing data over many years, that their 20kg bulk bag packing process results in a standard deviation of 45 grams. 1. State the direction of the alternative hypothesis used to test the advertised claim. Type the letters gt (greater than), ge (greater than or equal to), lt (less than), le (less than or equal to) or ne (not equal to) as appropriate in the box. 2. Use the tables in the text to determine the critical value used to conduct the test, assuming a 10% level of significance. If there are two critical values, state only the positive value. 3.
