A single-sampling plan has a fixed sample size and acceptance/rejection criteria. Therefore, options A and B cannot result in an identical AOQL for the purchasing company as the sample size and/or acceptance/rejection criteria differ from the original plan. Option C uses a larger sample size than the original plan, which would increase the inspection time and cost. Option D uses the same sample size and acceptance/rejection criteria as the original plan, ensuring an identical AOQL for the purchasing company. Therefore, D is the best choice.
