[All CLSSBB-001 Questions]

A Belt working in a supply chain environment has to make a decision to change suppliers of critical raw materials for a new product upgrade. The purchasing manager is depending on the Belt's effort requiring that the average cost of an internal critical raw material component be less than or equal to $4,200 in order to stay within budget. Using a sample of 35 first article components, a Mean of the new product upgrade price of $4,060, and a Standard Deviation of $98 was estimated. In order to increase the Long Term Z value to 4, what is the maximum long term variation in pricing the Belt can accept for his upgraded critical raw material component?

Hmm, this question is a tricky one. I'll need to carefully consider the given information about the mean, standard deviation, and the target long-term Z value to determine the maximum acceptable variation.

I'm not sure, I think it might be $70 because we need to increase the Long Term Z value to 4.

I agree with Dorothy, the Standard Deviation is $98 so $35 seems reasonable.
