Processing new accounts at a bank is intended to average 10 minutes each. Five samples of four observations each have been taken. Use the sample data below, construct a X-bar and a R (range) chart.

1. Determine the mean and range of each sample in above table.

Mean : 10.0+10.1++9.9+10.2+10/5=10.4

Range : 0.4+0.6+0.4+0.6+0.6+0.6/5=0.52

2. Compute the average mean (X) and average range (R ) in above table.

3. If the standard deviation of population is known as 0.25, compute upper and lower limits for a X chart.

4. If the standard deviation of population is unknown, compute upper and lower limits for a X chart. (Obtain the Factor from the Factor table and use it in calculation)
