A manufacturing company has been selected to assemble a small but important component that will be used during the construction of numerous infrastructure projects. The company anticipates the need to assemble several million components over the next several years. Company engineers select three potential assembly methods: Method A, Method B, and Method C. Management would like to select the method that produces the fewest number parts per 10,000 parts produced that do not meet specifications. It may also be possible that there is no statistical difference between the three methods in which case the lowest cost method will be selected for production. While all parts are checked before leaving the factory, the best method will reduce the number of parts that need to be recycled back into the production process. To test each method, six batches of 10,000 components are produced using each of the three methods. The number of components out of specification are recorded in the Microsoft Excel Online file below. Analyze the data to determine if there is any difference in the mean number of components that are out of specificaion among the three methods. After conducting the analysis report the findings to the management team. a. Compute the sum of squares between treatments (assembly methods).
b. Compute the mean square between treatments (to 1 decimal if necessary).
c. Compute the sum of squares due to error.
d. Compute the mean square due to error (to 1 decimal if necessary).
e. Set up the ANOVA table for this problem. Round all sum of squares to the nearest whole number. Round all Mean Squares to one decimal place. Round F to two decimal places.

At the = 0.01 level of significance, test whether the means for the three methods are equal.
Calculate the value of the test statistic (to 2 decimals).
The p-value is (to 4 decimals):
What is your conclusion for management?
Conclude that not all method means are equal. Conclude that all method means are equal.

Kando company incurs a $9 per unit cost for product a, which it currently manufactures and sells for $13.50 per unit. instead of manufacturing and selling this product, the company can purchase product b for $5 per unit and sell it for $12 per unit. if it does so, unit sales would remain unchanged and $5 of the $9 per unit costs assigned to product a would be eliminated. 1. prepare incremental cost analysis. should the company continue to manufacture product a or purchase product b for resale? (round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Anew 2-lane road is needed in a part of town that is growing. at some point the road will need 4 lanes to handle the anticipated traffic. if the city's optimistic estimate of growth is used, the expansion will be needed in 4 years and has a probability of happening of 40%. for the most likely and pessimistic estimates, the expansion will be needed in 8 and 15 years respectively. the probability of the pessimistic estimate happening is 20%. the expansion will cost $ 4.2 million and the interest rate is 8%. what is the expected pw the expansion will cost?

John and daphne are saving for their daughter ellen's college education. ellen just turned 10 at (t = 0), and she will be entering college 8 years from now (at t = 8). college tuition and expenses at state u. are currently $14,500 a year, but they are expected to increase at a rate of 3.5% a year. ellen should graduate in 4 years--if she takes longer or wants to go to graduate school, she will be on her own. tuition and other costs will be due at the beginning of each school year (at t = 8, 9, 10, and 11).so far, john and daphne have accumulated $15,000 in their college savings account (at t = 0). their long-run financial plan is to add an additional $5,000 in each of the next 4 years (at t = 1, 2, 3, and 4). then they plan to make 3 equal annual contributions in each of the following years, t = 5, 6, and 7. they expect their investment account to earn 9%. how large must the annual payments at t = 5, 6, and 7 be to cover ellen's anticipated college costs? a. $1,965.21b. $2,068.64c. $2,177.51d. $2,292.12e. $2,412.76
