Abstract

TECHNICAL AIDS by Lloyd S. Nelson Best Target Value for a Production Process Symbol Definition The Example ON SIDE R individual items produced continu­ ously. Each item is checked to determine r Income per item from sale 37e whether it satisfies a lower specification. (For an of rejected item, less any upper specification, changes in what follows will "repair" cost be obvious.) Items passed are sold at the regular 9 Cost per unit of excess qual- SSe/lb. ity price. Items failing are either sold at a reduced price or brought up to specification, thereby incur­ Hunter and Kartha [1] indicate that a graphical ring a cost of fixing. If the process is set high solution for 8*/0- is convenient. They provide both enough, the chance of producing rejectable items a figure and a table of 8*/0- versus go-/(a - r), can be made essentially zero.
