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.
