Equal-Risk Acceptance Sampling Plan

Abstract:

The common acceptance sampling plan needs to specify two points in the operating characteristic curve, which represent the producers and customers risks, respectively. The points are determined in a subjective way and hence may result in unfairness. This paper presents a new approach, which determines the acceptance sampling plan based on the condition that the risks of producer and customer at acceptable quality level are the same. Another condition is introduced to control the mean risk of producer. The approach can considerably simplify the design of acceptance sampling plan, and is illustrated by an example.
