Consider a product that consists of an assembly of 250 independent components. All of the components must be non-defective for the product to function satisfactorily. Calculate the proportions of products produced under Two Sigma and Six Sigma quality performances, respectively, that will be defective.
for 2 sigma process:
probability that a component will be good if process is two sigma =0.9545
hence probability that a component will be defective =1-P(all components are good) =1-(0.9545)250
=0.99999121
for 3 sigma process:
probability that a component will be good if process is three sigma =0.9973
hence probability that a component will be defective =1-P(all components are good) =1-(0.9973)250
=0.491308173

Problem 4. A company produces a certain product by assembling it at an assembly plant. All the com ponents needed to assemble the product are purchased from a single supplier. A shipment of all the components is received from the supplier each time the assembly plant needs to replenish its inventory of the components. The company incurs a shipping cost of $500 in addition to the purchase price for the components each time this is done. Each time the supplier...
2. Consider a world in which a risk-neutral monopolist offers a product for sale. The product costs c = $60. In each period, the product can either be fully functional or totally defective. It is totally defective with probability 0.2 and is thus fully operative with probability p = 0.8. These events are independent across periods. Consumers, who are all risk-neutral, have valuation of V = $120 for a fully-functional product and zero for a totally defective product. In any...
module, consists of five repairable components, all of which must operate for system success. Each component performs a different function but all five share identical reliability parameters. Specifically, MTTF for each component is 100 years and MTTR 40 hours. Calculate the following for this single system module: 1) Failure rate 2) Average down time 3) Unavailability

a) to calculate the total costs for each product if all overhead
costs are absorbed on a machine hour basics
b) to calculate the total costs for each product, using
activity-based costing; to calculate and list the unit product
costs from your figures in (a) and (b) above, to show the
differeneces and to comment briefly on any conclusions which may be
drawn which could have pricing and profit implications.

3. (30 points) Consider the BOM tree of a sub-assembly, namely A. Land time (LT) consists of estimates for setup time, processing time, materials handling time between operations or waiting time, depending on the item type. Items (B,C,D,E,F,G) belong to one of the followings: raw materials, purchased parts of manufactured parts. LT is given in terms of weeks. Suppose that there is no on-hand inventory and no scheduled receipts for all items. How many units of items E, D, and...
2. Four Step Process with Rework and Scrap - from module 5 slides Consider the following four step assembly operation with quality problems. All resources are staffed with one operator. The first resource has a processing time of 4 minutes per unit The second resource has a processing time of 3 minutes per unit. This process suffers from a high yield loss and 50% of all products have to be scrapped after this step. The third resource also suffers from...
California Circuits
Company (3C) manufactures a variety of components. Its Valley plant
specializes in two electronic components used in circuit boards.
These components serve the same function and perform equally well.
The difference in the two products is the raw material. The XL-D
chip is the older of the two components and is made with a metal
that requires a wash prior to assembly. Originally, the plant
released the wastewater directly into a local river. Several years
ago, the company...
