Your shop has produced a batch of 2000 parts today and shipped to your customer. Each part in the batch has a probability of being defective as 0.005.
If the batch has 3 or more defectives, the batch is returned. What is the probability of a batch of 2000 being returned by the customer? Also, please show how it can be solve using excel.?

Answer:

Here Probability of being defective is 0.005

Number of trials = 2000 = n

We need to find the probability of returning back => It is returned if it has greater than or equal to 3 defectives

Greater or equal to 3 means => Greater than 2 defectives => x = 2

BINOMDIST(x, n, p, TRUE) = cumulative probability distribution F(x) value at x for the binomial distribution B(n, p), i.e. the probability that there are at most x successes in n trials where the probability of success on any trial is p.

Probability of return = 1 - Prob ( 2 defectives)

= 1 - BINOMDIST(2,2000,0.005,true) = 0.9973

Customer feedback indicates that any more than ten defective parts in a box of 250 are unacceptable. Elroy has directed you, the Head of Quality, to determine what probability of any given part being defective (p) is acceptable if we are to have 90% of our customers happy. (Put another way we want the cumulative probability of 10 defects or less to be at least 0.900.) Please answer to three decimal places.

The ABC Transistor Corporation ships out transistors in lots of 12. 10% of all transistors produced are defective. ABC promises to repair any defectives which are shipped out. It also gives a money-back guarantee to customers is a lot has more than 2 defectives. The cost of ABC to repair a transistor is $10.00. The money-back guarantee costs ABC $30.00 in addition to repair costs. 1. Computer the probability that a lot of transistors will have more than 2 defectives....

Many companies use a quality control technique called acceptance sampling to monitor incoming shipments of parts, raw materials, and so on. In the electronics industry, component parts are commonly shipped from suppliers in large lots. Inspection of a sample of 40 components can be viewed as the 40 trials of a binomial experiment. The outcome for each component tested (trial) will be that the component is classified as good or defective. Reynolds Electronics accepts a lot from a particular supplier...

Quasi-Tech Corporation produces specially machined parts. The parts are produced in batches in one continuous manufacturing process. Each part is custom produced and requires special engineering design activity (based on customer specifications). Once the design is completed, the equipment can be set up for batch production. Once the batch is completed, a sample is taken and inspected to see if the parts are within the tolerances allowed. Thus, the manufacturing process has four activities: engineering, setups, machining, and inspecting. Costs...

Grear Tire Company has produced a new tire with an estimated mean lifetime mileage of 36,500 miles. Management also believes that the standard deviation is 5000 miles and that tire mileage is normally distributed. To promote the new tire, Grear has offered to refund a portion of the purchase price if the tire fails to reach 30,000 miles before the tire needs to be replaced. Specifically, for tires with a lifetime below 30,000 miles, Grear will refund a customer $1...
