Answer to Question 1

Researchers consider a number of criteria before selecting a sampling design, such as:
(1) Degree of Accuracy - the degree of accuracy required or the researcher's tolerance for sampling and nonsampling error may vary from project to project, especially when cost savings or another benefit may be a trade-off for a reduction in accuracy.
(2) Resources - managers concerned with the cost of the research versus the value of the information often will opt to save money by using a nonprobability sampling design rather than make the decision to conduct no research at all.
(3) Time - if time is an issue, the researcher will be more likely to select a simple, less time-consuming sample design.
(4) Advance Knowledge of the Population - a lack of adequate lists may automatically rule out several sampling designs.
(5) National versus Local Project - geographic proximity of population elements will influence sample design.
