Review Technology Plug-In 3 Problem Solving Using Excel 2016. Complete exercise 1. Production Errors Established in 2002, t-shirts.com has rapidly become the place to find, order, and save on T-shirts. One huge selling factor is that the company manufactures its own T-shirts. However, the quality manager for the production plant, Kasey Harnish, has noticed an unacceptable number of defective T-shirts being produced. You have been hired to assist Kasey in understanding where the problems are concentrated. He suggests using a PivotTable to perform an analysis and has provided you with a data file, T3_TshirtProduction_Data.xls. The following is a brief definition of the information within the data file: A. Batch: A unique number that identifies each batch or group of products produced. B. Product: A unique number that identifies each product. C. Machine: A unique number that identifies each machine on which products are produced. D. Employee: A unique number that identifies each employee producing products. E. Batch Size: The number of products produced in a given batch. F. Num Defect: The number of defective products produced in a given batch. Make fifteen pivottables as follows.

1. Four one-factor pivottables that investigate the defective rates. Use Product, Machine, Employee, and Batch Size as row fields and Num Defect as the value field to make four pivottables.

2. Six two-factor pivottables. Use Product x Machine, Product x Employee, Product x Batch Size, Machine x Employee, Machine x Batch Size, Employee x Batch Size as row and column fields respectively. For example, when you use Product x Machine factors, you put Product as the row field and Machine as the column field. Still, Num Defect is the value field.

3. Four three-factor pivottables. Use Product x Machine x Employee, Product x Machine x Batch Size, Product x Employee x Batch Size, Machine x Employee x Batch Size as row and column fields respectively. For example, when you use Product x Machine x Employee factors, you put Product and Machine as the row fields and Machine as the column field. Still, Num Defect is the value field.

4. One four-factor pivottable. Use Product x Machine x Employee x Batch size as row and column fields. The first three factors can be the row fields, and the last one is the column field. Still, Num Defect is the value field.
