A new exponential ratio-type estimator with linear combination of two auxiliary variables.
In sample surveys, it is usual to make use of auxiliary information to increase the precision of estimators. We propose a new exponential ratio-type estimator of a finite population mean using linear combination of two auxiliary variables and obtain mean square error (MSE) equation for proposed esti...
