|Apr 2016Abstract
In this paper, we propose generalized multivariate ratio and regression type estimators of a finite population mean using a linear combination of two auxiliary variables and obtain the expressions for biases and mean square errors for the proposed estimators. The conditions under which the proposed estimators are more efficient then the relevant estimators have been obtained. An empirical study has been done for the support of the problem.
