Question $2(4$ points$)$

In acceptance sampling, when the random sample passes the buyer's incoming test $($low number of defects found$),$ the next action taken is to:

accept the entire lot of incoming materials.

do additional testing to reduce the risk of accepting a bad$-$quality lot.

place the lot on hold and wait for additional lots from this seller to be tested to assure consistent good quality.

$100\%$ inspect the lot because some defects were found.
