SINGLE SAMPLING INSPECTIONS PLANS WITH SPECIFIED ACCEPTANCE PROBABILITY AND MINIMUM COSTS

Abstract

To design an economical sampling plan it is necessary to know the costs of sampling inspection, the costs of wrong decisions, and the quality distribution of lots submitted for inspection, the prior distribution. Sometimes it is impossible to specify the prior distribu tion in detail but a vague knowledge is available which means that not enough is known/for the minimax solution to be satisfactory. The problem then is to choose a third principle leading to a reasonable solution. The principle used in the present paper is to specify the acceptance probability for one quality level and minimize the costs of another quality level.
