Monetary-Unit Sampling Using Microsoft Excel. By Wampler, Bruce; McEacharn, Michelle. Read preview. Monetary-unit sampling (MUS) is a method of statistical sampling used to assess the amount of monetary misstatement that may exist in an account balance. The method, also known as dollar-unit sampling or probability-proportional-to-size sampling, has been used for many years and is widely accepted among auditors.
In our example, imagine that you chose 4. Now, to select the sample, start with the 4th unit in the list and take every k-th unit (every 5th, because k=5). You would be sampling units 4, 9, 14, 19, and so on to 100 and you would wind up with 20 units in your sample. In order for systematic sampling to work, it is essential that the units in the population be randomly ordered, at least with respect to the characteristics you are measuring.
