Hi everyone. I'm new to ACS data and am a bit confused. Below is a screenshot from page 64 of ACS General Handbook where the formula for determining MOE of the proportion and a worked example.
However, it appears to me that the worked example swaps the MOE(X-hat) and MOE(Y-hat). Am I totally wrong or missing something?
Any help totally appreciated. Thanks so much!
No, the worked example is correct. X-hat is never-married females (203,119), Y-hat is total females (630,498), MOE(X-hat) is 5,070, and MOE(Y-hat) is 831.
