Hi, I need help finding the correct answer to part C of this Operations Management problem. The two possible answer options are shown onscreen. Thanks! The fire department has a number of failures with its oxygen masks and is evaluating the possibility of outsourcing preventive maintenance to the manufacturer. Because of the risk associated with a failure, thecost of each failure is estimated at $2,400. The current maintenance policy (with station employees performing maintenance) has yielded the following history:DNumber of breakdowns0Number of years in which breakdowns occurred 4 2a) The expected number of breakdowns per year with station employees performing maintenance = 2.48 breakdowns per year (round your response to two decimal places).b) The cost of the current maintenance policy = $ 5942.86 (round your response to the nearest whole number).c) This manufacturer will guarantee repairs on any and all failures as part of a service contract.

The manager of Perrotti’s Pizza collects data concerning customer complaints about pizza delivery. Either the pizza arrives late, or the wrong pizza is delivered. Problem Frequency Topping is stuck to box lid 17 Pizza arrives late 35 Wrong topping or combination 9 Wrong style of crust 6 Wrong size 4 Pizza is partially eaten 3 Pizza never arrives 6 a. Use a Pareto chart to identify the “vital few” delivery problems. Comment on potential root causes of these problems and identify any especially egregious quality failures.b. The manager of Perrotti’s Pizza is attempting to understand the root causes of late pizza delivery and has asked each driver to keep a log of specific difficulties that create late deliveries. After one week, the logs included the following entries:delivery vehicle broke down, couldn’t make it across town to deliver second pizza in time, couldn’t deliver four pizzas to four different customers in time, kitchen was late in producing order, got…
