Question

b. The S/Q rating of pairs being produced and the percentage use of superior materials
c. The size of the incentive payment per non-defective pair produced
d. Expenditures for best practices training per worker
e. Spending for TQM/Six Sigma quality control efforts

Answer 1

Expenditures for best practices training per worker does not affect the reject rates at a company's production facilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is option d. Expenditures for best practices training per worker does not affect the reject rates at a company's production facilities. Reject rates at production facilities are influenced by various factors such as the number of models/styles comprising the product line, the S/Q rating of pairs being produced, the use of superior materials, and spending for TQM/Six Sigma quality control efforts. However, the size of the incentive payment per non-defective pair produced can also impact the reject rates as it motivates workers to reduce defects and improve quality.
