Q3. Mean values and ranges of data from 20 samples (sample size = 4) are shown in the 
table below: 

 
Plot x̅and R chart. What conclusions can you draw about statistical control? 
Answer :  
  

 
 
Conclusion from above control charts : 
1. In  the  X   chart,  3  points  lie  beyond  the  upper  control  limit  (UCL).  Hence  we  conclude  that  the  process 
average is out of control due to the presence of some assignable causes. 
2. In  the  R-chart,  all  points  lie  within  the  control  limits,  hence  it  is  concluded  that  process  variability  is  in 
control.  
 
Q6. A vendor ships components in lots of size 10,000. A single sampling plan with n = 89,

Answer :  

 
 
Q7.  A  single  sampling  plan  is  given  as  -  Lot  size  N= 5000, n = 50 and c = 1. Plot an OC Curve and AOQ Curve 
for this plan. Also find AOQL. 
Answer :  
AOQL for the given sampling plan is approximately 0.0165.
