Question

The Coca-Cola Company is the number-one seller of soft drinks in the world. Every day an

average of more than 1.5 billion servings of Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Sprite, Fanta, and other

products of Coca-Cola are enjoyed around the world. The company has the world’s largest

production and distribution system for soft drinks and sells more than twice as many soft drinks

as its nearest competitor. Coca-Cola products are sold in more than 200 countries around the

globe. For several reasons, the company believes it will continue to grow internationally. One

reason is that disposable income is rising. Another is that outside the United States and Europe,

the world is getting younger. In addition, reaching world markets is becoming easier as political

barriers fall and transportation difficulties are overcome. Still another reason is that the sharing

of ideas, cultures, and news around the world creates market opportunities. Part of the company

mission is for Coca-Cola to maintain the world’s most powerful trademark and effectively

utilize the world’s most effective and pervasive distribution system.

In June 1999, Coca-Cola Russia introduced a 200-milliliter (about 6.8 oz.) Coke bottle in

Volgograd, Russia, in a campaign to market Coke to its poorest customers. This strategy was

successful for Coca-Cola in other countries, such as India. The bottle sells for 12 cents, making

it affordable to almost everyone. In 2001, Coca-Cola enjoyed a 25% volume growth in Russia,

including an 18% increase in unit case sales of Coca-Cola. Today, Coca-Cola beverages are

produced and sold in Russia by the company’s authorized local bottling partner, Coca-Cola

HBC Russia, based in Moscow. The Coca-Cola business system directly employs

approximately 4000 people in Russia, and more than 70% of all supplies required by the

company are sourced locally.

Discussion

1. Because of the variability of bottling machinery, it is likely that every 200-milliliter bottle

of Coca-Cola does not contain exactly 200 milliliters of fluid. Some bottles may contain more

fluid and others less. Because 200-milliliter bottle fills are somewhat unusual, a production

engineer wants to test some of the bottles from the first production runs to determine how close

they are to the 200-milliliter specification. Suppose the following data are the fill measurements

from a random sample of 50 bottles. Use the techniques presented in this chapter to describe

the sample. Consider measures of central tendency, variability, and skewness. Based on this

analysis, how is the bottling process working?
