The Eighth Edition of the standard engineering economy text and reference explains the principles and techniques needed for making decisions about the acquisition and retirement of capital goods by industry and government, as well as alternative types of financing and other applications. Arranged in four parts: basic concepts, principles, and mathematics; procedures and methods for evaluating alternatives; techniques for handling special situations; and special applications. Introduces the use of computers and spreadsheets in evaluating engineering alternatives. Includes up-to-date coverage of federal tax legislation, extensive discussions and problems dealing with personal finance, and material on handling multiple alternatives by rate of return and benefit/cost ratio methods. Contains numerous examples and 476 problems, many entirely new. Accompanied by a complete solutions manual for the instructor.

This book is a practical workingmanual. It deals primarily with various types of control charts and acceptancesampling systems and procedures. The objective behind statistical qualitycontrol has been to write a book thatmight be immediately useful. The aim has been to give just enough theory tosupply practical working rules that will enable one to recognize the limitationsof the methods as well as their many uses. A special feature of this book is theliberal use of descriptions of actual cases from a number of economic sectors.each example has been selected to bring out one or more important points. Thebook retains its intuitive approach to probability and statistics. The book isdivided into four parts: part one is a short introduction to the topics coveredin the other three parts; part two treats topics concerning statistical processcontrol; part three discusses scientific sampling and part four deals with theeconomics of quality as well as some management and teaching aspects of qualitycontrol.

This title is a substantial revision of one of the leading textbooks designed for the statistical quality control course taught in departments of industrial engineering, operations research and statistics . While maintaining its already successful writing style and pedagogy, this title has also incorporated key organizational changes in order to reflect recent trends in the field. The text features large quantity of examples and student problems and a strong introduction to the proper use and misuse of control charts. In this edition several chapters were streamlined, and consolidations and profitability were brought forward in the text. There is new material on experimental design, a reduced emphasis on acceptance sampling, and enhanced attention to the managerial and organizational aspects of quality control. Free SPC expert software is packaged with the text for use as a statistical and graphical tool. Text plus 3.5" diskette.
