The problem of estimating a proportion of objects with particular attribute in a finite population is considered. This paper shows an example of the application of estimation fraction using new proposed sample allocation in a population divided into two strata. Variance of estimator of the proportion which uses proposed sample allocation is compared to variance of the standard one. In the paper an application of sample allocation described in Sieradzki & Zieliński [2017] is presented."
