Abstract

This paper presents a class of exponential chain ratio type estimator in double sampling for estimating finite population mean of the study variable, when the information on another additional auxiliary variable is known along with the main auxiliary variable. The property of proposed class of estimator has been studied. Comparison has been made with other competitive estimators. The proposed estimator is found to be more efficient both theoretically and empirically.
