Abstract
Ratio and regression estimators for a mean are considered in conjunction with certain sequential sampling schemes. An auxiliary variable is assumed present and both fixed-cost and fixed- width confidence interval stopping rules are investigated. The asymptotic distributions of the estimators are derived as well as optimal probabilities pertinent to the schemes. Comparisons are made with results of certain double sampling procedures. Estimation of the ratio of two means is also considered and the results of a Monte Carlo simulation are included.
