Noel Williams

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C, 1953, vol. 2, issue 3, 180-183

Abstract: Mr Williams shows how the ordinary statistical theory of sampling provides the auditor with criteria for deciding from checks on samples of items whether the whole set of items can be accepted as correct. Readers may care to comment on the procedures suggested.
