Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
Acceptance sampling does not guarantee the removal of all defects, nor does it ensure that the lot has the same defect percentage as the Lot Tolerance Percent Defective (LTPD). It simply means the lot has met the predefined criteria for acceptance, which does not imply any of the specific conditions listed in the other options.
