Use the infor to answer 26. And 27.

An auditor desired to test credit approval on 10,000 sales order processed during auditor designed a statistical sample that would provide 1% risk of assessing control (99% confidence) that not more than 7% of the sales order lacked approval. The estimate from previous experience that about 2^1/2% of the sales order lacked a sample of 200 invoice was examined and 7 of them were lacking approval. The determined the upper deviation limit to be 8%.

B. expected deviation rate (7%) was more than the percentage of error is
