Section A: P/Q Rating & Product Quality Factors
Q1: For UAV drones, the P/Q rating is determined by which combination of factors?
A. Number of models, camera body ergonomics, and special utility features
B. Assembly quality incentives, prior-year brand reputation, and prior-year worldwide
average warranty claim rate [CORRECT]
C. Cumulative R&D spending, number of models, and component caliber
D. Base wage, overtime pay, and year-end bonus
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: For UAV drones, the P/Q rating is specifically determined by assembly quality
incentives paid to drone PAT members, prior-year brand reputation, and prior-year
worldwide average warranty claim rate. Camera body ergonomics, special utility
features, cumulative R&D spending, and component caliber are factors for digital
cameras, not drones. Base wage, overtime pay, and year-end bonus are PAT
compensation components, not P/Q rating factors.
,Q2: For digital cameras, which factor does NOT contribute to the P/Q rating?
A. Caliber of core components
B. Cumulative spending for new product R&D/engineering/design
C. Increasing the number of models in the line [CORRECT]
D. Camera body ergonomics and durability
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Increasing the number of models in the line is explicitly NOT a way to improve
the P/Q rating for digital cameras. The P/Q rating for cameras is determined by caliber
of core components, cumulative R&D spending, number of models (already factored, but
increasing models does not improve rating), camera body ergonomics/durability, and
special utility features. Adding more models without improving other factors does not
enhance quality rating.
Q3: A company wants to improve its UAV drone P/Q rating. Which action would be most
effective?
A. Increase the number of drone models offered
B. Increase assembly quality incentives paid to drone PAT members [CORRECT]
C. Reduce warranty coverage to lower claim rates
D. Decrease the base wage of drone PAT members
Correct Answer: B
, Rationale: Increasing assembly quality incentives paid to drone PAT members directly
improves the drone P/Q rating, as this is one of the three factors determining drone
quality. The number of models does not affect drone P/Q rating. Reducing warranty
coverage is unethical and does not improve actual quality. Decreasing base wage may
reduce morale and productivity, negatively impacting quality.
Q4: The prior-year worldwide average warranty claim rate affects the P/Q rating of
which product?
A. Digital cameras only
B. UAV drones only [CORRECT]
C. Both digital cameras and UAV drones
D. Neither product
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The prior-year worldwide average warranty claim rate is a factor in the UAV
drone P/Q rating only. For digital cameras, warranty claim rates are not listed as a P/Q
rating factor; camera quality depends on components, R&D, ergonomics, and features.
Understanding product-specific quality factors is essential for strategic decision-making
in the simulation.
Q5: A digital camera company's P/Q rating is below the industry average. Which
investment would most directly improve the rating?
A. Increasing advertising spending in Asia-Pacific
B. Increasing cumulative spending for new product R&D/engineering/design [CORRECT]
