In determining the response rate for a mail survey, is it necessary to take into consideration the uncontacted population? (if known).
For example, if I know that the total population is 25000, mailed 15000 and then received 5000, wouldn't my response rate be about 33%? I know that the undeliverables and unusables are subtracted from the mail out number (in the above example, we are assuming that there are no undeliverables or unusables).
Thank you in advance for your time and consideration. Look forward to your response.
