ABSTRACT

An improved ratio-type calibrated estimator was developed using the logarithmic mean in the calibration constraint for the stratified random sampling scheme. The proposed estimator was extended in the case of stratified double sampling and compared with the estimators given by Tracy et al. (2003) together its ratio-type estimators, as well as Nidhi et al. (2017) and Khare et al. (2022). A simulation study was also carried out on both a real and artificial dataset in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed estimator compared to the existing estimators.
