A Note on the Optimal Sampling Fraction in Sampling with a “Non‐Sampling” Cost

M. H. Hoyle

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C, 1969, vol. 18, issue 1, 101-102

Abstract: The optimal sampling fraction is considered when the total cost of the sample depends not only on the costs of sampling but also on a cost incurred if the population member is not in the sample. The result is intuitively obvious.
