	abstract = {This study aimed to analyse the normal and abnormal loss of a jeans manufacturing company in India. Personal
interview and observation method are used in this study. Abnormal loss in quantity and rupee value is computed for
40 days of production based on the observed data. Mean abnormal losses are computed and one sample t-test is
applied to test the hypotheses that the mean abnormal loss is not equal to zero. The study revealed that a normal loss
of 3 to 5\% is expected in any garment manufacturing company due to loss during the cutting and shrinkage process.
The p-values of one sample t-test were less than 0.05 for all the tested hypotheses, hence, all the null hypotheses
(H01 to H05 mean abnormal losses equal to zero) were rejected. Further, it was found that fabric is the big contributor in
terms of abnormal loss. Hence, proper training for workers and recruiting of trained workers are advised to reduce
abnormal losses},
