Abstract

The classical producer's risk α and the consumer's risk β in acceptance sampling are defined based on the assumption that the proportion defective of incoming lots is a constant. This assumption has been a source of much of the criticism of acceptance sampling in recent years. Thus, assuming that the proportion defective is a random variable that follows a beta distribution, we derive (1) the modified producer's risk α′ and consumer's risk β′ and (2) Bayes producer's risk α″ and consumer's risk β″, and clarify their relationships with (3) the classical risks α and β.
