Answer to Question 1

An acceptance interval is an interval within which a sample mean has a higher probability of occurring, given that the population mean and variance is known. If the sample mean is within that interval, then the conclusion can be accepted that the random sample came from the population with the known population mean and variance. Thus acceptance intervals provide an operating rule for process-monitoring applications. The probability that the sample mean is within a particular interval can be computed if the sample means have a distribution that is close to normal. Acceptance intervals can also be computed for nonnormal probability distributions. Acceptance intervals find wide application for monitoring manufacturing processes to determine if product standards continue to be achieved.
