- Consider an assembly line with 20 stations. Each station has a 0.5% probability of making a defect. At the end of the line, an inspection step singles out the defective units. The inspection step catches 80% of all defects. From inspection, units that are deemed to be non-defective are moved to the shipping department. If a defect is found at inspection, it is sent to the rework department. Rework fixes about 95% of the defective units. Units are directly shipped from the rework department with no further inspection taking place. What is the probability that a defective unit is shipped (in decimal form)?arrow_forwardIf a database is not maintained or if incorrect data is entered into the database, serious problems can occur. What problems could occur if a student database is not maintained?arrow_forwardThe warehouse management system (WMS) of RoyaTech's Delaware Valley warehouse tracks service level at the warehouse. A service level failure at the warehouse is an event where a customer's order could not be shipped out in full by the promised shipping time. RoyalTech's ordering system prevents customers from placing orders on products that are not in-stock at the warehouse. Therefore, we can make the statement that "the WMS is guaranteed to show 100% service level at the warehouse." Choose the most appropriate statement in response: O True, because orders will be placed only for products that are available. O False, because service level can never be 100%. O False, because resource constraint or human error may delay the shipping even though inventory is available in the system. O False, because WMS calculations are faulty.arrow_forward

- True or false; explain your answer. For the past year, the average repair frequency for motorcycles (originally purchased in year 2021) that are owned by their original buyers are about the same as the average repair frequency for motorcycles (originally purchased in year 2021) that are owned by people who are the second owners of the motorcycles. This fact is evidence suggesting a market for lemons.arrow_forwardA department store sells a television set that was a one-year warranty (quality-assurance) that covers any product defects. When customers purchase a TV set, they also have the option to purchase an extended three-year warranty that covers any breakage or maintenance. The extended warranty sells for the same amount regardless of whether it is purchased at the same time as the TV set or at some other time. What is the only performance obligation of the department store ?arrow_forwardConsider a component that fails in THREE failure modes. Each failure mode follows a Weibull distribution function whose scale and shape parameters values are reported in the Table below: Scale Parameter Shape Parameter Failure Mode 1 7000 1.7 Failure Mode 2 10000 Failure Mode 3 12000 If the manager requires to have 0.99 component reliability at 1000 hours of operation. Determine the percentage of improvement required for each failure model in order to achieve this goal, by resorting to Competing Risk Model.arrow_forward
- A machine produces parts that are either good (90%), slightly defective (2%), or obviously defective (8%). Produced parts get passed through an automatic inspection machine, which is able to detect any part that is obviously defective and discard it. What is the quality of the parts that make it through the inspection machine and get shipped?arrow_forwardYou are a food specialist in a company that specializes inrefrigerated delicacies, and one of your brands requires beingmaintained at a temperature of 5°C. You determine averagewater activity (aw) at this temperature to be 0.2. One day, you are informed that the cooling systems onone of the delivery trucks carrying your company’s productsmalfunctioned while en route to its destination and it would notbe fixed until the next delivery. The driver has informed you thatthe temperature in the delivery bay of the truck is averaging55°C. You estimate a heat of sorption (Q) of 19 kJ/mol. Calculate the water activity of the brand at this elevatedtemperature and comment on it’s integrity. Should the deliverystill push through? Or should the products be recalled anddisposedarrow_forwarda factory that produces a small number of items per day. In about 30% of working days the factory produces 7 units of the product, in 45% of working days it produces 8 units, and the rest of working days it produces 9 units. After production is completed, each unit is thoroughly inspected. Each unit fails inspection with probability ??. If two or more units fail inspection on the same day, the factory closes for a week to re-calibrate equipment. Say the factory opens today after being closed for a week, write a mathematical expression to calculate the probability that the factory will remain open at least 30 days before closing again.arrow_forward
