Discussion:
Q: A computer chip is designed so that the distance between two adjacent pins has a specification of 2.000 ± 0.002 millimeters (mm). The loss due to a defective chip is $5. A sample of 25 chips was drawn from the production process and the results, in mm, are listed below.
1) Compute the value of k in the Taguchi loss function?
2) What is the expected loss from this process based on the sample data?
