Abstract
If the target error of an estimator at the present time is greater than the coefficient of variation(CV) of the estimator at the previous time, sample size at this point should be decreased. Various papers have researched sample size determination methods using the CV of an estimator at the previous time, variation of population size and target error of the estimator at this time in sampling on successive occasions. We research a new sample size determination method additionally using change of population CV. We compare the proposed method with existing ones in various simulation settings.
