Privately Owned homes 720
Homes rented from council 592
Homes rented from probate landlords 188

The council is to carry out a survey into the quality of homes


a) What would be the appropriate number of sample needed for the survey with 5% margin of error?
N = 1500
e = 5%
n =?
N
n=
1+ Ne2
1500
n=
1+(1500)(0.05)2
1500
n=
1+1500( 0.0025)
1500
n=
1+3.75
1500
n=
4.75
n=315.79=316

b) How many homes of each type should be included in the stratified sample using proportional
allocation?
GIVEN:
N = 1500
e = 5% = 0.05
n = 316
Nj
n j= xn
N
Privately Owned Homes:
N = 1500 n = 316
N1 = 720 n1 =?
N1 720
n1 = x n= x 316
N 1500

n1 =0.48 x 316
n1 =151.68=152
Homes Rented from Council:
N = 1500 n = 316
N2 = 592 n2 =?
N2
n2 =xn
N
592

1500
n2 =0.40 x 316
n2 =126.4=126

Homes Rented from Probate Landlords:


N = 1500 n = 316
N3 = 188 n3 =?
N3
n3 = xn
N

1500

n3 =0.13 x 316

n3 =41.08=41
