| Objective: |
| Your boss wants to know the limits of expected variation. You know there is another shipment |
| coming in next week and based upon this week’s run, you can calculate/predict the limits |
| of expected variation by calculating the mean and standard deviation. |
| need to use excell |
| The Mean and StDev in Excel |
| Expected variation |
| Instructions for you: |
| 1. Calculate the average for length, width and thickness. |
| 2. Calculate the standard deviation for each. |
| 3. From these calculations, determine the expected variation. ( Use + or – 3 sigma) |
| You may complete this assignment by hand, as taught in the lecture. You may use Excel, or you |
| may use a calculator or other software. We explain the fundamentals of the calculations, so that |
| you learn the mechanics and the meaning of standard deviation. This basic approach gives you an |
| understanding of standard deviation, which then allows you to be flexible in the tools that you use. |
