Abstract:

The linked/population/establishment survey (LPES) is a two-phase sample survey that estimates the volume of transactions between populations and establishments. Phase I is a population sample survey in which households identify the establishments with whom they had transactions during a specified calendar period and report the number of their transactions with each establishment. Phase II is an establishment sample survey in which the establishments identified in phase I report the variables of interest for samples of their transactions with all households. This paper compares the sampling errors of (1) the LPES and the conventional two-stage pps establishment survey of equivalent household and transaction sample sizes, and 2) the LPES and the conventional household survey of equivalent household sample size.
