A manufacturer conducted more quality inspections this quarter and found fewer defects, yet managers judged the risk of a major product recall to be higher. Which fact, if true, best resolves the apparent conflict?
A
Managers based recall risk solely on the total number of defects found during inspections.
B
The company inspected the same categories of defects more frequently but lowered the threshold for recording each one.
C
The supplier's components passed all required safety tests but had more cosmetic imperfections.
D
The increase in inspections occurred after managers had already lowered their estimate of recall risk.
E
The additional inspections focused on easily corrected cosmetic flaws, while a new supplier's safety-critical components had not yet been tested adequately.
