- Accrotime is a manufacturer of watches. Accotime researchers have shown that watches hwe an average life of 28 months before certain electronic components deteriorate causing the watch to become unreliable. The standard deviation of watch lifetimes is 5 months and the distribution is noemal. If Accrotime guarantees a full refund of any defective watch for 1.5 years after the purchase, what percentage of total production will the company expect to replace?
