The method which assumes that variation from target values of a quality characteristic causes hidden quality costs is called:
A)Multiplier method
B)Market research method
C)Taguchi quality loss function
D)Process acceptance sampling

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Taguchi quality loss function states that the cost of poor quality increases as the deviation from the target value increases. This method helps to identify the optimal target value for a quality characteristic that minimizes the total cost of poor quality, including both internal and external costs. The other options, Multiplier method, Market research method, and Process acceptance sampling, do not explicitly address the cost of poor quality caused by variation from target values.
