In the table below are selected values for the OC curve associated with the acceptance sampling plan n = 50, c = 1. (Watch out-the points are not evenly spaced.) Assume that upon failed inspection, defective items are replaced. Calculate the AOQ for each data point. (You may assume that the population is much larger than the sample.) Plot the AOQ curve. At approximately what population defective rate is the AOQ at its worst? Explain how this happens. How well does this plan meet the specifications of AQL = 0.0050, α = 0.05; LTPD = 0.05, β = 0.10? Discuss.

This plan does not meet the specification very well. At .005 defective, the probability of acceptance is not 95% but over 97. At 0.05 defective, the acceptance rate is not 5% but 28.

Identify an organization you are familiar with (such as from your work experience or from your textbook).Discuss one measure that the organization uses to measure the efficiency of their HR practices.Provide a concrete example.Ensure you define efficiency.

On May 01, 2024


Efficiency is expressed in terms of the results achieved (outputs) in comparison to the resource inputs. Measures of efficiency include the following:
∙ Time (e.g., average time to fill an opening, process a benefits claim)
∙ Volume (e.g., number of people interviewed to fill a job, number of requests processed per employee)
∙ Cost (e.g., cost per training hour or per test).
Cost:
∙ ratio of compensation expense to total operating expense
∙ benefit cost per employee covered
∙ ratio of benefits expense to total operating expense
∙ processing costs per benefit claim
∙ administration costs per benefit claim
∙ cost per training day
∙ cost per trainee per program
Volume:
∙ number of training days
∙ number of interviews per selection
∙ ratio of filled positions to authorized positions
∙ percentage of employees with formal performance evaluations
∙ percentage of designated employees
Response Time:
∙ time between requisition and filling of position
∙ time to process benefits
∙ time from identifying a training need to program implementation
∙ time to respond to requests by category
