INTERPRETATION OF MEAN
CHART AND R-CHART
The choice between the mean and R-chart is a managerial
problem. Mean chart is used to control the quality
averages of the samples drawn from a given process,
where as R-Chart is used to control the quality variability's
of the samples.
Also it is better to construct R-Chart first. If it indicates that
the dispersion of the quality by the process is out of
control, it is better not to construct Mean chart, until the
quality dispersion is brought under the control.
Mean chart reveals undesirable variations between samples
while R-Chart reveals any undesirable variations within the
samples

1. A drilling machine bores holes with a mean diameter of
0.5230cm and a standard deviation of 0.0032cm.
Calculate the 2-sigma and 3-sigma upper and lower
control limits for means of samples of 4 and prepare a
control charts.

Applications of u-chart
An u-chart is applied to control the number of defects per
unit in the case of fairly complex assembled units as
T.V.sets, aircraft engines, refregirators etc.
FORECASTING AND
REGRESSION MODELS
In Decision making we deal with devising Future Plans :
For instance, in Financial Planning like share markets,
Investments in Fixed and Recurring deposits, we need to
predict the pattern of cash-flow over time.

DECISION THEORY(Sequential
Decision Models)
THREE CATEGORIES OF
DECISION MAKING
I Decision making under certainty in which the data are
known deterministically (Data well defined)
II Decision making under risk in which the data can be
described by probability distribution (Data are
ambiguous)
III Decision making under uncertainty in which the data
cannot be assigned weights that represent their degree
of relevance in the decision process. (Data middle-ofthe-road situation)
EXPECTED OPPORTUNITY
LOSS(EOL)
S-1 : List the conditional profit table for each act-event combination ,
along with corresponding event probabilities.
S-2 : For each event, determine the Conditional Opportunity Loss
(COL=Highest Pay off-other act loss) values by first locating the
most favorable act (maximum pay-off) for that event and then
taking the difference between that conditional profit value and
each conditional profit value for that event.
S-3 : For each act, determine the expected COL values and sum
these values to get the expected opportunity loss (EOL) for that
act.
S-4 : Choose that act which corresponds to the minimum COL value.
problems
1.A manager has a choice between (i) A risky contract
promising Rs.7 lakhs with probability 0.6 and Rs.4 lakhs
with probability 0.4 , and (ii) A diversified portfolio
consisting of two contracts with independent outcomes
each promising Rs.3.5 lakhs with probability 0.6 and
Rs.2 lakhs with probability 0.4. Construct a decision tree
for using EMV criteria. Can you arrive at the decision
using EMV criteria ?
Using the EMV criteria , the manager must go for the risky contract which
will yield him a higher expected monetary value of Rs.5.8 lakhs

1.Mr X has received full academic scholarships from three
Institutions : U of A , U of B and U of C. To select a
university Mr X specifies two main criteria : location and
academic reputation. Being excellent student he judges
academic reputation to be five times as important as
location, which gives a weight of approximately 17% to
location and 83% to reputation. Analyze the best choice
of the university by ranking the three universities from
the standpoint of location and reputation.
