ISE 4120 probability distribution and control chart
1. The life of a certain component x is normally distributed with a mean of µ=30 hours and std deviation
= 4 hours. a) What is the probability that failure occurs after 26 hours of operation.
b) When should the component be replaced so that the probability of
failure is no more than 5%.
2. If the probability that a single article will be nonconforming is 0.2, what is the probability that a sample
of 15 such articles will contain:
a) exactly 1 nonconforming item
b) more than 5 nonconforming items.
c) at most 3 nonconforming

3. A certain machining operation puts out finished bolts whose diameters have a mean:µ = 0.440 in. and = 0.02 inches. (Use the table of Control Chart Constants #4 in our class portal)
a) compute the 3-sigma control limits for the x-bar and S charts based on a subgroup size of 9.
b) what is the probability of not detecting a shift in to 0.05 inches on the x-bar chart on the first subgroup sampled after the shift (assume the mean stays the same)?
c) what is the average number of samples (i.e., the expected number) required to detect the shift in b) above? Give your answers to the nearest whole number.

4. A manufacturer of certain subassembly item used in robot control is having difficulty with a particular dimension on the unit. Two automatic screw machines produce the parts at a rate of 100 per hour each.
Items from both machines are discharged into a single tote from which a subgroup of 4 is selected every half-hour. The process appears to be in statistical control with the 3-sigma control limits for the X-bar chart equal to 140 ± 5 units. The s-chart also showed control. The normal distribution applies.
a). Assuming no points are out of control and no runs are apparent, if the buyer of the subassembly components has design spec limits of 139 ± 10, and 10,000 parts undergo this process, how many parts will be out of spec.
b). Suppose a sudden shift in the process average increases the mean by + 0.25 but the process variance remains unchanged, what % of the product will be out of control on the manufacturer’s control chart.
What is the probability of detecting this shift by the 4th sample taken after the shift?

5. A control chart for number nonconforming chart (np chart) is to be established based on a sample size of n=400. To initiate the control chart, 30 samples, each of 400 items, were selected were and the number nonconforming tabulated for all 30 samples, yielding the following: ∑ ?? = ? = 120 30 ?=1
a). Establish the parameters of the np chart (compute ?̅, ??̅, ??,???, ???)
b). Suppose the fraction nonconforming p shifts to 0.025. What is the probability that the shift would be detected in the first sample taken after the shift has occurred? ( Use the Poisson Approximation)
6. A fraction nonconforming chart has center line ?̅= 0.1, UCL=0.19, and UCL=0.01.
a). Assuming a 3-sigma chart is used, what is the sample size for the control chart.
b). Use the Poisson approximation to the binomial to find the probability of a Type I error α.
c). Use the Poisson approximation to find the Type II error if the actual fraction nonconforming p=0.2
d). What is the ARL in part c).
e). If it is desired that the UCL should not be more than 0.182, what sample size n will guarantee this value of the UCL. What is the corresponding value for LCL?

Question 1
A. Assume that you are the HR manager in an investment bank. You have an orientation session with
interns. One of the interns ask you how the investment banking operations are organised. Please
respond to this intern by explaining three organisational departments of an investment bank. Another
intern asks, “I heard that the ‘middle office’ is a less glamorous part of an investment bank but serves
some of the most important functions.” Discuss this statement. [4 marks]
FINM3404 FINAL EXAM
B. Tulip Bank uses the Moody’s Analytics Portfolio Manager model to evaluate the risk–return
characteristics of the loans in its portfolio. Tulip has two loans with the following characteristics:
Loan given to Marvel Corporation (with an amount of $6 million) earns 1 percent per year in fees, and
the loan is priced at a 3 percent spread over the cost of funds for the bank. For collateral
considerations, the loss to the bank if the borrower defaults will be 25 percent of the loan’s face value.
The expected probability of default is 2 percent.
Loan given to Capcom Corporation (with an amount of $5 million) earns 1 percent per year in fees,
and the loan is priced at a 4 percent spread over the cost of funds for the bank. For collateral
considerations, the loss to the bank if the borrower defaults will be 20 percent of the loan’s face value.
The expected probability of default is 3 percent.
The default risk correlation between Marvel and Capcom is 0.12.
Requirements:
i. Calculate the percentage return on the loan portfolio [2 marks]
ii. Calculate the percentage risk of the loan portfolio [2 marks]
iii. Discuss why Moody’s Analytics Portfolio Manager model might be a good choice over using
MPT based regular loan portfolio diversification model for ADIs and insurance companies.

selling at par has been estimated at 6.763 years.
i. What is the modified duration of the bond? What is the dollar duration of the bond? [1 mark]
ii. What will be the estimated price change on the bond if interest rates increase 15 basis points?
If rates decrease 25 basis points? [2 marks]
iii. What would the actual price of the bond be under each rate change situation in part (b) using
the traditional present value bond pricing techniques? What is the amount of error (difference
between estimated and actual price) in each case? [3 marks]
B. ‘Even years after the commencement of deregulation in the financial markets, the international capital
markets still remain a relatively important source of funds for commercial banks.’ Give your opinion on
this statement with a detailed discussion. [4 marks]

Show the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity graphically. Include the original and regulated inverse demand curves, firm’s marginal revenue curve, and firm’s marginal cost curve.
Imagine a university called ic that is the monopoly in the market for economics degrees, with cost-function C(Q) = 25Q2 + 360. Imagine the inverse demand function for economics degrees is p(Q) = 400 − 25Q. The government has decided it would ensure that there is no deadweight loss in this market for economics degrees by setting a price cap on ic.
A. What would be the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity if the government did not impose a price cap and ic was able to operate as an un-regulated monopoly?
B. At what optimal price should the government cap economics degree sales?
C. What are the new post-price cap equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity?
D. What is ic’s new profit at the equilibrium?
E. Prove that this new profit level is a global maximum.
F. Show the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity graphically. Include the original and regulated inverse demand curves, firm’s marginal revenue curve, and firm’s marginal cost curve.
