Figurę 5. ARLs for CUSUM charts when an IMA(X) process experiences a step shift of p (innovation) standard deviations p increases down the columns; X increases across the rows. The top, middle, and bottom curves in each panel correspond CUSUMs with ARL0 values of 500, 250, and 100 respectively. To choose a value for k, use the column with X closest to the estimated value and focus on the curves corresponding to the desired ARL0. Sometimes it will be necessary to sacrifice ARL performance for one value of p to get better performance at another value.
