Question:

Fudge requires a fairly strict adherence to the sequence of boiling sugar in milk until it reaches a certain consistency and then beating the mixture while it cools so that it acquires a smooth, creamy texture. A small candy company ships fudge worldwide. If its fudge mix has a stable consistency, workers can control the weight of the fudge by simply timing how long they pour the warm fudge into the box prior to shipping. They'd like the labelled \(18 \mathrm{oz}\). box of fudge to contain no more than \(18.5 \mathrm{oz}\). of fudge and no less than \(17.9 \mathrm{oz}\). From the last 100 batches, they estimate the standard deviation of the weights to be \(0.1 \mathrm{oz}\). with a mean of \(18.1 \mathrm{oz}\).

QUESTION:

 Perform a process capability analysis on the candy company and comment on your findings.
