Recurrig Teme: Improve Precisio of Estimates for Fixed Costs Oe could argue tat moe is cetral te fuctioig of our societ. We use stratified radom samplig because we are trig to improve te precisio of estimates wile keepig costs costat. If we fid a good stratificatio based o auxiliar iformatio we will do muc better ta if we use simple radom samplig. ote tis is te same idea we used we we developed ratio ad regressio estimators.
