A new ratio estimator in stratified random sampling
In this article, we suggest a new ratio estimator in stratified random sampling based on the Prasad (1989) estimator. Theoretically, we obtain the mean square error (MSE) for this estimator and compare it with the MSE of traditional combined ratio ...
