Calculate sample size with finite population correction
Cochran's formula n0 = Z^2 p(1-p) / E^2 with the finite-population correction n = n0 / (1 + (n0 - 1) / N). Assumes simple random sampling and full response; use 50% for the estimated proportion if unsure (most conservative). Increase the sample to allow for non-response.
