The asymptotic properties of the hybrid estimator follow directly from the properties of Pan’s estimator. As the number of clusters increases, the Pan and Rogers estimators become more similar. To assure the asymptotic validity of his estimator, Pan needed the two assumptions, listed in section 3.1, to hold true [5].
