Abstract

The present article proposes an improved exponential method of estimation for current population mean in two-occasion successive sampling when the information on an auxiliary variable is readily available on both the occasions. The behavior of the proposed estimator has been examined and its optimal replacement strategy is formulated. Empirical studies are carried out to show the dominance of the proposed estimation procedure. Results are interpreted and suitable recommendations are made to the survey practitioners.
