Solution:

Rolled Throughtput Yield the probability that a manufacturing service complete all the required steps without any failures.

RTY = (R1)(R2)....................(Rn)

DPU = Total no of defects found in sample/Sample size

(1) Calculation for RTY

R1 =1- 75/850 = .91

R2 = 1-72/1202 = .94

R3 = 1-83/943 = .80

R4 = 1-70/894 = .92

R5 = 1-88/1200 =.926

RTY = (R1)(R2)......(R5)

RTY = (.91)(.94)(.80)(.92)(.926)

RTY = .582

(2) DPU Calculation

DPU1 = 75/850 = 0.088

DPU2 = 72/1202 = 0.059

DPU3 = 83/943 = 0.088

DPU4 = 70/894 = 0.078

DPU5 = 88/1200 = 0.073

TDPU = 0.088+0.059+0.088+0.078+0.073

TDPU = 0.386
