1. How does inspection at various stages of completion affect the amount of normal and abnormal spoilage?

   	a.	Early inspections can help prevent any further costs being wasted on units that are already spoiled
   	b.	The impact of spoilage at early stage vs. a later stage has no financial impact when determining WIP
   	c.	Units found to be defective and removed in the production process in the earlier stage have a compounding negative effect to costs in the later stage
   	d.	No affect to the amount of normal or abnormal spoilage

1. Which of these is NOT a category in the cost of quality program:

   	a.	External failure costs
   	b.	Internal failure costs
   	c.	Prevention costs
   	d.	Erosion costs

Increasing capacity of a bottleneck resource reduces manufacturing cycle times and delays. To increase capacity:

	a.	Implement flexible manufacturing systems that can be programmed to switch quickly from producing one product to producing another
	b.	Increase time it takes for setups and processing
	c.	Segregate batching of jobs so similar jobs are not together in the processing
	d.	Only increase capacity as not to experience unused capacity levels
