QUESTION 2 In the process to produce a specific electrical component, the diameter size of the component is critical and need to be monitored. The process is in statistical control with mean of 4.3 mm and standard deviation of 0.2428. The component must be produced within the specification limits of 4.4 +0.2 mm to conform. If the diameter is too small, it will be reworked, and if the diameter is too large, it will be scrapped. The unit costs of scrap and rework are RM1.00 and RM0.50 respectively. The daily production is 5000 units. a) Find the proportion of scrap and rework. (5 marks) b) Estimate the total cost of scrap and rework per day. (3 marks) c) Briefly suggest how to improve the scrap and rework
