Abstract
An optimization problem was presented in Chap. 2 for a single-stage stratified sample design. This chapter presents a solution to the multipurpose design question borrowing from material presented in Chaps. 3, 4, 5, and 6. A series of solutions was generated for the sample allocation to test the sensitivity of the assumptions.
