Question:

A sample of 100 employees is to be drawn from a population of collages A and B. The population means and population mean squares of their monthly wages are given below:

Village Ni equation equation2
Collage A 400 60 20
Collage B 200 120 80

Draw the samples using Proportional and Neyman allocation techniques and compare. Obtain the sample mean and variances for the Proportional Allocation and SRSWOR for the given information. Then Find the percentage gain in precision of variances of sample mean under the Proportional Allocation over the that of SRSWOR.

Question:

At a call centre, callers have to wait till an operator is ready to take their call. To monitor this process, 5 calls were recorded every hour for the 8-hour working day. The data below shows the waiting time in seconds:

Time Sample Number
1 2 3 4 5
9 a.m 8 9 15 4 11
10 7 19 7 6 8
11 11 12 10 9 10
12 12 8 6 9 12
1 p.m 11 10 6 14 11
2 7 7 10 4 11
3 10 7 4 10 10
4 8 11 11 11 7

 

(i) Use the data to construct control charts for mean and comments about the process. If process is out of control, then calculate the revised control limits.

(ii) If the specification limits as the 8±2, then calculate the process capability index Cpk and impetrate the result

Question:

A manufacturer of men's jeans purchases zippers in lots of 500. The jeans manufacturer uses single-sample acceptance sampling with a sample size of 10 to determine whether to accept the lot. The manufacturer uses c = 2 as the acceptance number. Suppose 3% nonconforming zippers are acceptable to the manufacturer and 8% nonconforming zippers are not acceptable. Find

(i) Probability of accepting a lot of incoming quality 0.04.

(ii) Average outing quality (AOQ), if the rejected lots are screened and all defective zippers are replaced by non-defectives.

(iii) Average total inspection (ATI).

Question:

State whether the following statements are True or False. Give reason in support of your answer:

(i) The R-chart is suitable when subgroup size is greater than 

(ii) In single sampling plan, if we increase acceptance number then the OC curve will be steeper.

(iii) If the effect of summer and winter is not constant on the sale of AC then we use the additive model of the time series.

(iv) If a researcher wants to find the relationship between today's unemployment and that of 5 years ago without considering what happens in between then the partial autocorrelation is the better way in comparison to autocorrelation.

(v) A system has four components connected in parallel configuration with reliability 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.8. To improve the reliability of the system most, we have to replace the component which reliability is 0.2.
