Questionnaires were sent to 200 randomly selected business of different sizes (Small, Medium, and Large) for a total of 600 question (so, 200 to each size). The total response rate was 41%, but the breakdown by size was interesting: 125 small businesses responded (62.5%), 81 medium business responded (40.5%), and 40 large businesses responded (20%). Did the size of a company affect the response rate to this survey? Use the above percentages to support your answer.

Answer:

No. The size of the company doesn't affect the response rate of the survey.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total of surveys: 600. Distributed as follows:

200 sent to Small companies

200 sent to Medium companies

200 sent to Large companies.

Response rate:

125 sent to Small companies

81 sent to Medium companies

40 sent to Large companies.

The percentage calculation goes as follows:

(total number of answered surveys)/total number of sent surveys

[( 125 + 81 + 40 ) / 600 ] * 100 = 41 %

If we add a single survey answered, despite the size of the company, we obtain the same result because the total of answered surveys is not affected.
