Sampling is used heavily in manufacturing and service settings to ensure high-quality products. In which of the following areas would sampling be inappropriate? a) Custom cabinet making b) Computer assembly c) Cell phone manufacturing d) Technical support

Sampling would be inappropriate in custom cabinet making. This is because each cabinet is unique and custom-made to fit specific measurements and requirements of the client. Inspecting a sample cabinet would not guarantee the quality of the other cabinets, as the materials and measurements may differ. Every cabinet must be individually checked for quality to ensure customer satisfaction.
