Managerial Report
In making this assessment for Gebhardt Electronics, consider the following three questions:
#
1. If the new supplier does provide spools of .20-mm solid OFE copper wire that average 50
inches between flaws, how is the length of wire between two consecutive flaws
distributed?
2. Using the probability distribution you identified in (1), what is the probability that
Gebhardt's criteria will be met (i.e., a 1 in 20 chance that a randomly selected 3-foot
segment of wire provided by the new supplier will be flawless)?
3
3. In inches, what is the minimum mean length between consecutive flaws that would result
in satisfaction of Gebhardt's criteria?
4. In inches, what is the minimum mean length between consecutive flaws that would result
in a 1 in 100 chance that a randomly selected 3-foot segment of wire provided by the new
supplier will be flawless?
E
