Acme, Inc. manufactures 15,000 small motors per day.A quality engineer randomly took 100 motors from the output of the production line, each day for 40 days in a row. Each of the motors was inspected and tested.The number of defectives in each sample of 100 motors is recorded in the table below.For example, the first sample of 100 motors included 3 defective motors which is equivalent to a 3% defect rate.

Assume the sample data above is taken from normally distributed data.

1.Construct and submit a control chart using this data.Is the Motor production process in-control or out-of-control?Explain.

2.At what sigma level is the process operating?Show your calculations and explain your reasoning.

3.Assume the motors are used in simple home appliances (toasters, coffee pots, timers, etc.) manufactured by Ace Home Goods (AHG).What are the potential COPQ consequences for AHG?Should they try to find a different supplier?Explain.Now assume the motors are used in medical equipment in operating rooms and intensive care units.What are the potential COPQ consequences for the equipment manufacturer?Should they try to find a different supplier?Explain.
