📈 PPMY Index and Problem Occurrence Trend

In our research we use the PPMY index to compare the reliability of vehicles. The PPMY index of a certain model is defined as the problems reported per thousand vehicles per Year. The total sales of the 2010 Ford Expedition in the United States are 43,098 units [1]. If the total number of problems reported by Ford Expedition owners in the last 16 years is 73, and the age of the vehicle is 16, the PPMY index can then be calculated as

      PPMY Index = 73 / 43,098 / 16 * 1000 = 0.11.
