摘要：In the case when the population mean of auxiliary character is not known but population mean of another additional auxiliary character is known, improved classes of chain type estimators for ratio of two population means of study characters in the presence of non-response have been proposed and their properties are studied. The proposed classes of chain type estimators have been found to be more efficient than the corresponding estimators in case of fixed sample sizes and also in case of the fixed cost. It is also found that the proposed classes of chain type estimators have less total cost in comparison to the cost incurred for the corresponding estimators in case of the specified variance. An empirical study has been given in support of the problem under investigation.
