Acceptance sampling is a statistical quality control method used to determine whether to accept or reject a batch of products based on a sample. It helps balance the risks of accepting defective goods and the costs of inspection, ensuring quality without examining every item.

Acceptance Sampling

Statistical Quality Control (SQC) is a method used in manufacturing and service industries to ensure that the quality of a product or service is maintained and improved over time by using statistical methods. It involves the use of control charts, process capability analysis, and other statistical tools to monitor and control the production process, thereby minimizing defects and variability.

A sample is a subset of a population used to represent the whole in statistical analysis, allowing researchers to make inferences about the population without examining every individual. The quality and reliability of conclusions drawn from a sample depend on its size and how well it is selected to reflect the population's diversity and characteristics.
