In industrial and manufacturing processes, there are several input factors in different levels, which may affect the final product characteristics. The design of experimental method, as one of the new quality improvement methods identifies the most important effective factors factors on product quality by experimental design and adjusts its optimal levels. The purpose of this study was determination of the optimum weight of the 500-ml serum bottle using the 2k design of experimental, so that, if thicker, it would increase the consumption of the primary substance of P.P. And losses, and if it is used less than standard, it will cause deformation of the body and loss of the product. Because the serum production process faces some inevitable waste but subsequent changes in weight cause the consumption control not be properly performed, so after determining the weight the standard of the serum the conditions of the machine must be checked, it is possible to approach the production with a standard weight and the normal waste is under control. In this study, we tried to identify the factors affecting the weight of the serum bottle using 2k experimental design. After analyzing and evaluating the adequacy of the model, the results of analysis of variance and main effects graphs showed that the timing of cycle, the temperature of the heaters and the extruder circle had the most direct effect on the weight of the bottle. By controlling these factors, we can determine the weight fluctuations reduced the bottle. Manuscript profile

The financial crisis is a long-term process which affects many financial and operational aspects of companiesand the financial reporting system has played a major role in this process by employing different accounting methods.The purpose of this study is to analyze the financial crisis by applying the method of smoothing the profit and considering the effects of the variables of the positive accounting theory.This research is a semi-experimental analytical researchWhich is applied in terms of purpose and is classified as descriptive research. Data were analyzed using a sample of 144 listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange,during the period of 10 years (2007 to 2016), the data were combined and the multivariate regression model was analyzed.The results of the first to third hypotheses indicate thatthere is no significant relationship between the lack of liquidity, the inability to fulfill obligations and the failure of the operation with the profit smoothingand the reason for this is that the companies did not pay much attention to the use of smoothing in the context of the financial crisis.There is also a significant and inverse relationship between bankruptcy and profit smoothingwhich shows that companies facing bankruptcy by smoothing the profits seek to improve the conditions of bankruptcy.
