Illustrative prior variance of natural-log mean household consumption at EA level, modeled as if obtained from an earlier household survey. Used for demonstrating Neyman allocation in stratified sampling; the values are synthetic and are not official estimates for Burkina Faso.

Usage

bfa_eas_variance

Format

A tibble with 13 rows and 2 columns:

region

Factor. Region name

var

Numeric. Prior variance of natural-log mean household consumption at EA level within region

Source

Generated by the synthetic prior-survey model in the internal bfa_eas build recipe.
