Q1. (a) A firm producing robotic machines is considering adopting a reduced-defects policy.
They are currently producing 1000 robots per year, but about 3 percent of them are
defective and, once a defective robot is produced, it costs them an average of
Rs.8000/- in service and repair time to fix it. Management estimates that the new
policy would increase the production cost by Rs.100/- per robot, but the defective rate
would be reduced to only one-third of what it is now (in other words, to 1 percent
defective).

(ii) How much could the production cost per robot increase before the reduced
defects policy would no longer be economical?
(b) Rocket Propulsion Company is considering the expansion of solid-propellant
manufacturing process by adding more 1-ton-capacity curing furnaces. Each batch (1

restrictions in other parts of the system. The required output for the new layout is to be
16 tons per shift (8 hours). Plant (system) efficiency is estimated at 50 percent of
system capacity.
