Statistical sampling: Uses laws of probability for selection and evaluation of a sample. Allows for quantification of audit risk and sufficiency of audit evidence. Nonstatistical sampling: Does not utilize statistical models in calcualtions. Uses a non-mathematical approach to determine sample sizes and evaluate the selected samples.
