Improvement in variance estimation using transformed auxiliary variable under simple random sampling

Abstract This paper offers a novel approach to formulate efficient ratio estimator of the population variance using a transformed auxiliary variable. The impact of transformation on auxiliary information has also been discussed. It is observed that incorporating a transformed auxiliary variable resu...
