Sampling Design
Using the scenario and two variables your learning team developed for the Week 2 Business Research Project Part 1 assignment {attachment 1}, create a paper of no more than 750 words in which the goal is to submit a random sampling plan in such detail that another researcher could replicate the method.
Discuss the following:
(a) Population and size
(b) The target population and brief reasoning
(c) Sampling element which may be conducted through any of the following:
• Data mining

(e) Method of random sampling which may include:
• Simple
• Stratified

Calculate the sample size using a 95% confidence level, and a 5% margin of error. Place the calculation in the Appendix. Here is the data: We are going to go with the highest group of coffee drinkers that is age 25 - 29 in Duval County Fl. The population is 32,583 as per the 2014 census. The 95% confidence with a 5 percent margin for error gives us a sample size of 380 according to the sample calculator on www.surveysystem.com

Explain how human subjects will be protected (if applicable).
