      <abstract>
        <p>In this research, we consider the process parameters setting by addressing Taguchi’s cost for product and process adjustment with time value of money. The process parameters with the constant standard deviation and linear mean drift are considered. Some parameters with optimal process parameters and production run length are determined.</p>
