How many work cycles should be timed to estimate the average cycle time to within 2 percent of the sample mean with a confidence of 98.0 percent if a pilot study yielded these times (minutes): 4.1,4.6,5.1, 4.9, 5.9, and 4.4? The standard deviation is .631 minutes per cycle. (Use the "mean time" value to 2 decimal places and other values to 3 decimal places for intermediate calculations. Round up your final answer to the next whole number.) Number of work...

A time study of a factory worker has revealed an average observed time of 3.20 minutes, with a standard deviation of 1.28 minutes. These figures were based on a sample of 45 observations. Assume that the firm wants to be 90% confident that the standard time is within 5% of the true value. (Round all intermediate calculations to two decimal places before proceeding with further calculations.) | Based on the given information and the given confidence level and accuracy level,...

A job in an insurance office involves telephone conversations with policyholders. The office manager estimates that about half of the employee's time is spent on the telephone. How many observations are needed in a work sampling study to estimate that time percentage to within 6 percent and have a confidence of 95.5 percent? (Round z values to 2 decimal places.

A worker-machine operation was found to involve 3.6 minutes of machine time per cycle in the course of 40 cycles of stopwatch study. The worker’s time averaged 2.1 minutes per cycle, and the worker was given a rating of 111 percent (machine rating is 100 percent). Midway through the study, the worker took a 10-minute rest break. Assuming an allowance factor of 11 percent of work time which is applied only to the worker element (not the machine element), determine...

A teacher wants to estimate the mean time (in minutes) that students take to go from one classroom to the next. His research assistant uses the sample time of 40 students to report the confidence interval as [7.40, 8.60]. a. Find the sample mean time used to compute the confidence interval. (Round intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole number.) Sample Mean - b. Determine the confidence level if the sample standard deviation used...

Time Study: Consider the recorded observations of 10 cycles of the cup packaging operation in seconds, shown in the figure below. Notice that the data reflects the continuous method in timing the elements. Determine the select times for each work element, the normal time for the cycle, and the standard time per package. Suppose we want a sample size that gives an average within + 2 percent of the true average 95 percent of the time. Did we make enough...
