Question

For each of the following surveys, state which method ofsampling would be most appropriate for the sampling frame yourecommended. Be realistic. Justify your choice. A north vancouver travel agency wants to determine the mostpopular winter vacation destinations during the past 3 years. I wrote down: The sampling frame should be your winter vacation customerrecords for the past 3 years. This should be entirelypossible since every business should have records of each customertransaction. I don't think you need a method for samplingsince you have all the data already and can just tally up eachtransaction with its appropriate vacation spot to determine whichvacation spot was most popular.

Explanation / Answer

      Though all the customer'srecords were available, it may not be possible to examine eachcustomer's choice. There may a large set of data. So, by taking aproper sample which exactly represents the population, most popularvaccation spot can be obtained.          Sampling method which I preffered is Stratified Sampling. Because,customers can be categorized based on their economicprofile. So, first categorize the customers and then take a randomsample from each category will gives better idea ofcustomer's view in selecting vaccation spot. HOPE THIS WILL HELP U
