Investigation of Competent Estimation Procedure for Estimating the Finite Population Mean at Current Occasion Addressing Non-response in Two-Occasion Successive Sampling

This paper is an effort to investigate the effect of non-response at the current (second) occasion in successive sampling. Using the subsampling non-respondent procedure, some exponential-type estimators have been proposed to estimate the current population mean. Properties of the proposed class of estimators are examined, and respective optimum replacement strategies are derived. Empirical studies are carried out to evaluate the performances of the suggested estimators. The outcomes are interpreted, and appropriate recommendations have been made.
