Cochran's Formula

Cochran's sample size formula calculates required survey sample sizes n = (Z² × p × q) / e² for large populations with 95% confidence and 5% margin of error.

Calculation Methodology & Details

📐

Formula

Sample Size n = [Z² × p × (1 - p)] / e² Six Sigma DPMO = (Defects / Opportunities) × 1,000,000 F1 Score = 2 × (Precision × Recall) / (Precision + Recall)

Applies standard data science evaluation metrics, ARIMA time-series models, Six Sigma DPMO quality equations, and Bayesian probability updates.

FAQ

How is sample size calculated for an unknown population?
Using Cochran's formula n = (Z² × p × q) / e² with p = 0.5 (maximum variability), a 95% confidence level (Z = 1.96) and a 5% margin of error yields a required sample size of n = 385.
What is Six Sigma DPMO (Defects Per Million Opportunities)?
DPMO measures process quality defect density. A 6-Sigma quality level allows no more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities (99.99966% yield).
What is the difference between Precision and Recall?
Precision = TP / (TP + FP) measures how accurate positive predictions are. Recall = TP / (TP + FN) measures how many actual positive instances were successfully captured by the model.
