a random testing method for determining the quality of a finished product by inspecting a sample number of the items in each batch. The items selected are examined for a particular attribute, which is usually an abnormal or negative characteristic—for example, a sample of cars from one production run might be inspected for poor paintwork, and the number of sampled cars found with this attribute used to calculate the number of defective items in the whole batch.
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...

In recent years, the number of sampling methods and programs available to brand managers have increased dramatically, and at the same time have become more sophisticated in their approach to sample delivery. Many of the new programs being introduced use modern marketing information systems to identify prime consumer groups and...
Derivative security pricing relies increasingly on lattice representations of stochastic processes. When the lattice is of high dimension, exhaustive enumeration becomes conceptually costly. Instead, Monte Carlo simulation is used to estimate lattice value by sampling appropriately from the nodes. Naïve sampling can lead to substantial error in estimation because the...
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...
BOUCHERVILLE, Quebec--BUSINESS WIRE--Nov. 12, 1996-- Altavista Inc.(ME AIA.) Altavista Mines Inc. is pleased to announce channel sampling results for the Montbray showing, where a prior rock sampling returned high grade gold values of up to 120 g/t Au (3.5 oz/Au).
If business-to-business marketers experience twinges of inadequacy when compared to their counterparts in consumer fields, sampling is often the reason. Consumer marketing men trot out jargon about quotas, stratification, probabilities and the like which is mumbo jumbo to 99 per cent of industrial marketers. The business-to-business researcher feels intuitively that...
GIG HARBOR, Wash. -- LKA International, Inc. (OTCBB:LKAI). Earlier this week LKA received assay results from a detailed sampling program initiated by Barrick and conducted by Pincock, Allen & Holt. The object of the sampling program was Golden Wonder ore both within the mine as well as ore stored at...

Pretest Probability PTP assessment plays a central role in diagnosis. This report compares a novel attribute-matching method to generate a PTP for Acute Coronary Syndrome ACS. It compares the new method with a validated Logistic Regression Equation LRE. Based on the findings the paper concludes that attribute matching estimated a...

SAN FRANCISCO -- Security and Personalization Combined with an On-Demand Identity and Attribute Service Unlock the Value of Existing Information Assets for Fine-Grained Policy and Federated Identity
TORONTO -- Recent in-store demonstrations of, and the sampling program for, the O24TM Essential Oil Pain Neutralizer, announced in the Company's December 3rd news release, exceeded expectations.
The article tries to establish the fact that the Web is revolutionizing market research. Web interviewing has obvious advantages over traditional telephone and central location interviewing. However, much of what is proclaimed to be revolutionary and new about Web surveys is not an advance, but a half-century regression in terms...
