| # Examples of the Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) Example
Single Sampling
Acceptable Quality Level | 60 %
Sample Size | 30 pieces
Sample | Sample Quantity | Result
1 | 5 pieces | Good
2 | 10 pieces | Bad
3 | 15 pieces | Good
Actual Quality Level = [(5 + 15) / (5 + 10 + 15)] x 100% = 66,67 % The actual quality is higher than the acceptable quality level. Consequently, the order quantity is accepted.
Continuous Sampling
Acceptable Quality Level | 60 %
Order Quantity | 300 pieces
Frequency | 100 pieces
Sample size | 10 pieces
Sample | Sample | Actual Quality Level
1 | 10 pieces | 70 % good
2 | 10 pieces | 50 % good
3 | 10 pieces | 80 % good
