APPENDIX D
TABLE D-II. Hypergeometric sampling plans for small homogenous lot sizes of 200 or less. - Continued.
Table D-II gives the acceptable quality level (AQL) and sample size series (SSS) values associated with certain
single sampling plans (acceptance number, sample size, and lot size). The table has the following features:
a. Calculations are based upon the hypergeometric distribution (exact theory) for lot sizes 200 or less.
b. The AQL of a sampling plan is defined as the interpolated percent defective for which there is a 0.95 probability
of acceptance under the plan. The AQL so defined need not be a realizable lot percent defective for the lot size
involved (e.g., 12 percent is not a realizable percent defective for a lot size of 20).
c. The sample size series of a sampling plan is defined as the interpolated percent defective for which there is a
0.10 probability of lot acceptance under the plan. The sample size series value so defined need not be a
realizable lot percent defective for the lot size involved.
d. The sequence of sample sizes and lot sizes are generated by taking products of preceding numbers in the
respective sequences.
