In attributes sampling, an estimate of the expected population exception rate is necessary to plan the sample size. The relationship of expected population exception rate (EPER) to sample size is
A) direct (small EPER = small sample).
B) inverse (small EPER = large sample).
C) a variable (sometimes small, sometimes large) dependent on other factors present.
D) indeterminate.
