Design specifications require that a key dimension on a product
measure 106 ± 12 units. A process being considered for producing
this product has a standard deviation of five units.
a. What can you say (quantitatively) regarding the
process capability? Assume that the process is centered with
respect to specifications. (Round your answer to 4 decimal
places.)
|
b. Suppose the process average shifts to 98. Calculate the new process capability. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
|
c. What is the probability of defective output after the process shift? (Use Excel's NORM.S.DIST() function to find the correct probability. Round "z" values to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
Probability of defective output ?

1. a) What is a best cost provider strategy? Define. Explain how it is different from a cost leadership strategy (2 points).
b) Illustrate both strategies using a publicly-listed company for each strategy (i.e., 1 company for each strategy) within the same industry. Clearly identify the industry and the 2 companies you are discussing and explain how the companies are executing a best cost provider strategy and a cost leadership strategy? (2 points)

McBurger, Inc., wants to redesign its kitchens to improve productivity and quality. Three designs, called designs K1, K2, and K3, are under consideration. No matter which design is used, daily production of sandwiches at a typical McBurger restaurant is for
500
sandwiches. A sandwich costs
$1.30
to produce. Non-defective sandwiches sell, on the average, for
$2.50
per sandwich. Defective sandwiches cannot be sold and are scrapped.
The goal is to choose a design that maximizes the expected profit at a typical restaurant over a 300-day period. Designs K1, K2, and K3 cost
$100,000,
$130,000,
and
$180,000,
respectively.
Under design K1, there is a .80 chance that 90 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective and a .20 chance that 70 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective. Under design K2, there is a .85 chance that 90 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective and a .15 chance that 75 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective. Under design K3, there is a .90 chance that 95 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective and a .10 chance that 80 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective.
The expected profit level of design K1 is
$nothing.
(Enter
your response as a real number rounded to two decimal

The expected profit level of design K2 is
$nothing.
(Enter
your response as a real number rounded to two decimal
places.)
The expected profit level of design K3 is
$nothing.
(Enter
your response as a real number rounded to two decimal
places.)
What is the expected profit level of the design that achieves the maximum expected 300-day profit level?

PART A
Write a C program that takes the names and surnames of the students and then displays the initial and last name of the name on the screen. For instance, if Onur Uslu is entered as input, the output of our program must be O. Uslu.
PART B
Write a C program that asks the user to enter a string and then sends it to a function that does the following job and shows the response from the function on the screen. The function must return all words in the string from the program by converting the initial letters into their large form.
Example Output
Type of a string:Hello world
New sentence:Hello World

A company needs to budget for fuel, they have to consider the weight of the shipment.
Average weight= 20,160 pounds
The CEO wonders if preferences have changed and you have to adjust the budget for fuel. Based on 14 shipments, the average weight has been 20,901 pounds with a sample standard deviation of 800 pounds. What should you conclude at the 99% confidence level?
Show your work on the calculated score (Commands from Excel)

Think of an algorithm to find the maximum value in an (unsorted) array. Now, think of an algorithm to find the second largest value in the array. Which is harder to implement? Which takes more time to run (as measured by the number of comparisons performed)? Now, think of an algorithm to find the third largest value. Finally, think of an algorithm to find the middle value. Which is the most difficult of these problems to solve?

During Year 1 and Year 2, Agatha Corp. completed the following transactions relating to its bond issue. The corporation’s fiscal year is the calendar year.
Year 1
Jan. 1 Issued $310,000 of 10-year, 6 percent bonds for $298,000. The annual cash payment for interest is due on December 31.
Dec. 31 Recognized interest expense, including the straight-line amortization of the discount, and made the cash payment for interest.
Dec. 31 Closed the interest expense account.
Year 2
Dec. 31 Recognized interest expense, including the straight-line amortization of the discount, and made the cash payment for interest.
Dec. 31 Closed the interest expense account.
Required
a-1. When the bonds were issued, was the market rate of interest more or less than the stated rate of interest?
a-2. If Agatha had sold the bonds at their face amount, what amount of cash would Agatha have received?
b. Prepare the liabilities section of the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1 and Year 2.
c. Determine the amount of interest expense that will be reported on the income statements for Year 1 and Year 2.

Objective: Design and test a 4-bit Right shift register with serial input.
Part I
Use D flip-flops (FF) in your design (Memory → D Flip-Flop). Ensure the output of each FF (Q) goes to an output so the functionally of the shift register can be verified. All 4 Flip-Flop need to share a common clock which is connected to an input you can control. Verify the functionally of the circuit by changing the input value and toggling the clock. You should see the value in the register shift to the right.
Part II
Modify the circuit so that if the register contains 1010 OR 0111 an output signal goes active (logic 1). Verify the functionally of the circuit by shifting in the two values to be detected and ensure the output goes high (logic 1).
