The estimators utilize information on known parameters of auxiliary variable. Mean square error equations for proposed estimators are obtained up to first degree of approximation. Proposed estimators are more efficient than estimators proposed by Thompson (1990) and Chutiman (2013) under certain realistic conditions. Simulation study is carried out to support the theoretical findings.Read More
