AOQ2 Function

computes average outgoing quality for a double-sampling plan.

Syntax

replacement

has the value 'REP' or 'NOREP', respectively, depending on whether nonconforming items are replaced with conforming items.

Description

The AOQ2 function returns the average outgoing quality for a Type B double-sampling plan in which nonconforming items are replaced with conforming items (replacement is 'REP') or not replaced (replacement is 'NOREP'). For details on Type B double-sampling plans, see Types of Sampling Plans.

For replacement, the average outgoing quality is

     

and for no replacement, the average outgoing quality is

     

where, in both situations,
