8.6:

A lighting company seeks to study the percentage of defective glass shells being manufactured. Theoretically, the percentage of defectives is defectives is dependent on temperature, humidity, and the level of artisan expertise. Complete historical data are available for the following variables on a daily basis for a year:

a.    Temperature (high, normal, low)
b.    Humidity (high, normal, low)
c.    Artisan expertise level (expertise, average, mediocre).

Some experts feel that defectives also depend on production supervisors. However, data on supervisors in charge are available for only 242 of the 365 days. How should this study be conducted?

Opportunity Cost

/in /by

Instructions:
Opportunity cost is defined as “the amount of other products that must be foregone or sacrificed to produce a unit of a product.” Another way to look at
it is the value of the activity which is the next best use of your time. This exercise will ask you to relate this concept to decisions you make.
What would you be doing with your time and energy if you were not taking this class? Explain the other activity in some detail. How do you value the
cost of not doing the other activity? Be explicit in defining the costs associated with each activity. Put a value on each element.
For example, | am trying to decide if | should go to a football game with the guys. | have an idea of the cost of the tickets, transportation, and the food
and beverage. | clearly have the benefit of the enjoyment of the game. However, this is not all that needs to be considered. If | did not go to the game,
what would | be doing? Well, | could take my wife out for dinner. How much value do | give to going out on a date with my wife? Or, | could spend time
eaming income. NOTE: Be careful, you cannot do everything. You must select the next best thing you would do with your time, energy, money. Once
you have evaluated both uses of your time, are you still going to go to the game or are you going to take your wife to dinner? Now think of your own
story about a tradeoff you have had to make, or will need to make in the future.
