a quality control decision-making technique used in a manufacturing environment, in which acceptance or rejection of a batch of parts is decided by testing a sample of the batch. The sample is checked against established standards and, if it meets those standards, the whole batch is deemed acceptable.
Although in recent years more emphasis is placed on process control and off-line quality control methods, acceptance sampling remains a major ingredient of many practical quality control systems. This is especially true in industries that rely heavily on materials, that are supplied from outside vendors, that may be located far...
The article says that one can design an acceptance-sampling plan to signal when to undertake a total physical inventory count. Compared to taking a total inventory count at a fixed period annually, sampling can provide you with more accurate record counts, cause less disruption of operations, and lower costs. The sampling...
Monetary-unit sampling MUS is a method of statistical sampling used to assess the amount of monetary misstatement that may exist in an account balance. The method, also known as dollar-unit sampling or probability-proportional-to-size sampling, has been used for many years and is widely accepted among auditors.
Statistical sampling is playing an increasingly important role in identifying deductions and credits for federal income tax purposes. The Internal Revenue Service has been responsive to questions about the appropriateness of and requirements for the use of statistical sampling in tax determinations. The creation of territory sampling coordinator positions and...
The author describes the use of sampling in a financial setting and focuses, as an illustration, on some of the methods used by the FDIC to value assets in liquidation. By using sampling, as opposed to valuing each asset, significant cost savings are achieved while ensuring the accuracy and...
