A company wants to develop an acceptance sampling plan that keeps the producer's risk at 0.03 or less and the customer's risk at 0.10 or less. The acceptable quality level (AQL) is 0.01, and the lot tolerance proportion defective (LTPD) has been set at 0.10. Which one of the following plans gives us the desired protection? Table G.1 is appended to this exam.
A) c = 3, n = 190
B) c = 2, n = 54
C) c = 1, n = 30
D) c = 1, n = 20

Using Table G.1, we can determine the appropriate combination of c and n that meets the requirements for both the producer's risk and the customer's risk. 
For an AQL of 0.01 and LTPD of 0.10, the single sampling plan (c = 1) with a sample size of 54 (n = 54) meets the requirements for both the producer's risk (0.016) and the customer's risk (0.097). Therefore, B is the best choice.
