Abstract

Using double sampling procedure, this paper presents a general class of estimators for the finite population mean when the population mean of the main auxiliary variable $x$ is unknown but that of an additional auxiliary variable $z$ is known. The proposed class of estimators is superior to some of the previously studied classes under minimum variance criterion.
