Unreferenced date July 2007 In audit ing, sampling is an inevitable means of testing. However, sampling is always associated with sampling risks which auditors have to control. Sampling risk represents the possibility that auditor s conclusion based on a sample is different from that reached if the entire population were subject to audit procedure. The auditor may conclude that material misstatements exist, in fact they do not or material misstatements do not exist but in fact they do exist. Auditor can lower the sampling risk by increasing the Sample size sampling size . Non sampling risk includes factors that cause auditors to reach a conclusion other than the sampling size. Interpreting Misinterpretation of evidence and inappropriate Procedure term procedures are good examples. Changing of the sampling size would not reduce non sampling risk.

In the theory of finite population sampling , Bernoulli sampling is a sampling process where each element of the statistical population population that is sampled is subjected to an statistical independence independent Bernoulli trial which determines whether the element becomes part of the sample during the drawing of a single sample. An essential property of Bernoulli sampling is that all elements of the population have equal probability of being included in the sample during the drawing of a single sample. Bernoulli sampling is therefore a special case of Poisson sampling , where each element of the population may have a different probability of being included in the sample. Because each element of the population is considered separately for the sample, the sample size is not fixed but rather follows a binomial distribution .

In the theory of finite population sampling , Poisson sampling is a sampling statistics sampling process where each element of the statistical population population that is sampled is subjected to an statistical independence independent Bernoulli trial which determines whether the element becomes part of the sample during the drawing of a single sample. Each element of the population may have a different probability of being included in the sample. The probability of being included in a sample during the drawing of a single sample is denoted as the first order inclusion probability of that element. If all first order inclusion probabilities are equal, Poisson sampling becomes equivalent to Bernoulli sampling , which can therefore be considered to be a special case of Poisson sampling. A mathematical consequence of Poisson sampling Mathematically, the first order inclusion probability of the i th element of the population is denoted by the symbol sub i sub and the second order inclusion probability that a pair consisting of the i th and j th element of the population that is sampled is included in a sample during the drawing of a single sample is denoted by sub ij sub .

A random sampling technique ... cluster sampling, all the elements from each of the selected clusters are used. In two stage cluster sampling, a random sampling technique is applied to the elements from each of the selected clusters. The main difference between cluster sampling and stratified sampling is that in cluster sampling the cluster is treated as the sampling unit so analysis is done on a population of clusters at least in the first stage . In stratified sampling, the analysis is done on elements within strata. In stratified sampling, a random sample is drawn from each of the strata, whereas in cluster sampling only the selected clusters are studied. The main objective of cluster sampling is to reduce costs by increasing sampling efficiency. This contrasts with stratified sampling where the main objective is to increase precision. There also exists multistage sampling , where more than two steps are taken in selecting clusters from clusters.

Refimprove date October 2009 sampling statistics Sampling is the use of a subset of the population statistics population to represent the whole population. Probability sampling, or random sampling , is a sampling technique in which the probability of getting any particular sample may be calculated. Nonprobability sampling does not meet this criterion and should be used with caution. Nonprobability sampling techniques cannot be used to infer from the sample to the general population. Any generalizations obtained from a nonprobability sample must be filtered through one s knowledge of the topic being studied. Performing nonprobability sampling is considerably less expensive than doing probability sampling, but the results are of limited value. Examples of nonprobability sampling include Convenience, Haphazard or Accidental sampling members of the population are chosen based on their relative ease of access. To sample friends, co workers, or shoppers at a single mall, are all examples of convenience sampling . Snowball sampling The first respondent refers a friend. The friend also refers a friend, etc. Judgmental sampling or Purposive sampling The researcher chooses the sample based on who they think would be appropriate for the study.

Quota sampling is a method for selecting survey participants. In quota sampling, a population is first segmented into mutually exclusive sub groups, just as in stratified sampling . Then judgment is used to select the subjects or units from each segment based on a specified proportion. For example, an interviewer may be told to sample 200 females and 300 males between the age of 45 and 60. This means that individuals can put a demand on who they want to sample targeting This second step makes the technique non probability sampling. In quota sampling, the selection of the sample is non random sample and can be Reliability statistics unreliable . For example, interviewers might be tempted to interview those people in the street who look most helpful, or may choose to use accidental sampling to question those closest to them, for time keeping sake. The problem is that these samples may be biased because not everyone gets a chance of selection. This non random element is a source of uncertainty about the nature of the actual sample and quota versus probability has been a matter of controversy for many years. ref http www.fao.org docrep W3241E w3241e08.htm quota 20sampling Marketing Research and Information Systems.

Theoretical sampling refers to the process of choosing new research sites or cases to compare with ones that have already been studied. It is one of the tools of qualitative research . The term was coined by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss in 1967. The goal of theoretical sampling is not the same as with the sampling statistics probabilistic sampling the researcher s goal is not the representative capture of all possible variations, but to gain a deeper understanding of analysed cases and facilitate the development of analytic frame and concept s used in their research. Theoretical sampling can be viewed as a technique of data triangulation using independent pieces of information to get a better fix on something that is only partially known or understood.

Multistage sampling is a complex form of cluster sampling . Advantages cost and speed that the survey can be done in convenience of finding the survey sample normally more accurate than cluster sampling for the same size sample Disadvantages Is not as accurate as SRS if the sample is the same size More testing is difficult to do Using all the sample elements in all the selected clusters may be prohibitively expensive or not necessary. Under these circumstances, multistage cluster sampling becomes useful. Instead of using all the elements contained in the selected clusters, the researcher randomly selects elements from each cluster. Constructing the clusters is the first stage. Deciding what elements within the cluster to use is the second stage. The technique is used frequently when a complete list of all members of the population does not exist and is inappropriate. In some cases, several levels of cluster selection may be applied before the final sample elements are reached. For example, household surveys conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics begin by dividing metropolitan regions into collection districts , and selecting some of these collection districts first stage . The selected collection districts are then divided into blocks, and blocks are chosen from within each selected collection district second stage . Next, dwellings are listed within each selected block, and some of these dwellings are selected third stage .

Accidental sampling sometimes known as grab , convenience sampling or opportunity sampling is a type of nonprobability sampling which involves the Sample statistics sample being drawn from that part of the population which is close to hand. That is, a sample population selected because it is readily available and convenient. The researcher using such a sample cannot scientifically make generalizations about the total population from this sample because it would not be representative enough. For example, if the interviewer was to conduct such a survey at a shopping center early in the morning on a given day, the people that he she could interview would be limited to those given there at that given time, which would not represent the views of other members of society in such an area, if the survey was to be conducted at different times of day and several times per week. This type of sampling is most useful for pilot testing.
