When may IPP label products with marks of inspection?

• A. When the product is priced favorably.
• B. When the plant requests labeling.
• C. When production is slow.
• D. When the products are found not adulterated.

Answer: (D)

Marks of inspection certify that a product has been examined and meets the required safety and quality standards. They are applied only after the product is inspected and found not adulterated. If issues are found, the product would not receive the mark and may be rejected or subjected to corrective action. So the labeling occurs when products are found not adulterated. The other factors—pricing, the plant requesting labeling, or slow production—do not determine whether the mark is applied; the decision hinges on passing inspection.
