Question: Each day, a FedEx competitor processes approximately 50,000 shipments. Suppose that they use the same Service Quality Index as FedEx and identified the following numbers

Each day, a FedEx competitor processes approximately 50,000 shipments. Suppose that they use the same Service Quality Index as FedEx and identified the following numbers of errors during a 5-day week (see the "FedEx: Measuring Service Performance" box). These values are hypothetical and do not reflect any real companys actual performance.

Description Weight Number of Errors
Complaints reopened 3 145
Damaged packages 10 15
International 1 110
Invoice adjustments 1 277
Late pickup stops 3 200
Lost packages 10 5
Missed proof of delivery 1 25
Right date late 1 748
Traces 3 110
Wrong day late 5 10

Compute the Service Quality Indicator by finding the weighted sum of errors as a percentage of total shipments. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to three decimal places.
