OPTIMUM SEPARATE RATIO -TYPE EXPONENTIAL ESTIMATOR FOR COMPUTATION OF POPULATION MEAN IN STRATIFIED RANDOM SAMPLING

Abstract

In this manuscript, we study the problem of separate type exponential ratio estimator for estimation of population mean with their properties. The MSE and Bias up to the first degree of approximation for the suggested estimator are computed. The suggested estimator is proven to be more efficient than estimators mentioned in the literature under stratified random technique. An empirical investigation was done to assess the suggested estimator. Also, the percent relative efficiency is to be remarkable for the proposed estimator.
