✍️ Sample BSE Questions & Answers

1. What is the purpose of acceptance sampling in quality control?
To determine whether to accept or reject a batch based on a sample inspection

Acceptance sampling uses statistical methods to inspect a representative sample from a batch and decide whether the entire batch meets quality requirements.

2. Which risk response strategy involves shifting the negative impact of a risk to a third party?
Transfer

Transferring a risk moves ownership of the risk and its consequences to another party, such as through insurance or outsourcing.

3. What is 'process capability' (Cp) a measure of?
The ability of a process to produce output within specification limits

Process capability (Cp) quantifies how well a process can produce output within customer-defined specification limits relative to the process's natural variation.

4. Which cost estimation technique uses the relationship between a new project's parameters and historical data from completed similar projects?
Parametric estimating

Parametric estimating uses statistical relationships between historical data and project variables (like cost per unit) to calculate estimates.

5. Which quality cost category includes costs incurred to prevent defects from occurring?
Prevention Costs

Prevention costs are investments made to stop defects from occurring, including training, process design, and quality planning activities.

6. What is the purpose of a project baseline?
To serve as an approved reference point for measuring project performance

A project baseline is the approved version of the plan used to compare actual performance and identify variances.
