The manager of a retail clothing store is concerned about the
“shrinkage” (shrinkage in retail refers to losses from employee and
customer theft and inventory mistakes.) The manager decides to use
an Average and Range Control Chart to monitor loss (in $) due to
shrinkage by measuring the shrinkage twice each month. The data for
the last few months is shown.
What percentage of the time will they meet the manager's
goal?
