FORMULA
1. Sales invoice
All invoices numbered 0001 to 8274
=RANDBETWEEN(1,8274)
2. Bill of lading
All bills of lading numbered 18221 through 29427 (if a random number table is used, the left-most digit “2” can be dropped)
=RANDBETWEEN(18221, 29427)
3. Customer
A pair of random numbers, where the first random number is the page number (1-20), and the second random number is the line number on the page (1-50)
=RANDBETWEEN(1,20)
and
=RANDBETWEEN(1,50)
4. Line numbers on the sales journal that have a sales invoice recorded on them
A pair of random numbers, where the first random number is the page number (1-215), and the second random number is the invoice as counted down from the top of the page (1-100)
=RANDBETWEEN(1,215)
and
=RANDBETWEEN(1,100)

An example random sampling plan prepared in Excel (P1525.xls) is available on the Companion Website. The command for selecting the random number can be entered directly onto the spreadsheet, or can be selected from the function menu (math & trig) functions. It may be necessary to add the analysis tool pack to access the RANDBETWEEN function. Once the formula is entered, it can be copied down to select additional random numbers. When a pair
