a) True. In two-stage sampling, if all the secondary units within each selected primary unit are observed (i.e., complete enumeration within selected clusters), the design reduces to cluster sampling because each selected primary unit is treated as a cluster and all its elements are included. b) False. The product estimator of the population mean is generally a biased estimator, though it may have smaller mean square error under certain conditions (such as negative correlation between study and auxiliary variables). It is not the only unbiased estimator in the general class; the simple sample mean is an unbiased estimator. c) True. If the parameters satisfy the conditions of a balanced
