Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Production quality control is an example of a detective control, as it is intended to identify errors or irregularities that have already occurred, rather than prevent them from occurring in the first place. A preventive control is designed to prevent errors or irregularities from happening, such as physical security of assets, adequate recordkeeping, following policies and procedures, and hiring competent and ethical employees.
