A chain ratio-type estimator is proposed for the estimation of finite population mean under systematic sampling scheme using two auxiliary variables. The mean square error of the proposed estimator is derived up to the first order of approximation and is compared with other relevant existing estimators. To illustrate the performances of the different estimators in comparison with the usual simple estimator, we have taken a real data set from the literature of survey sampling.

This paper presents exponential ratio and product estimators for estimating finite population mean using auxiliary information in double sampling and analyzes their properties. These estimators are compared for their precision with simple mean per unit, usual double sampling ratio and product estimators. An empirical study is also carried out to judge the merits of the suggested estimators.
