Abstract

This paper proposes a modified ratio-cum-product estimator of finite population mean of the study variate Y using known correlation coefficient between two auxiliary characters X1 and X2. An almost unbiased ratio-cum-product estimator has also been obtained by using Jackknife technique envisaged by Quenouille (1956). The merits of the proposed estimator are examined through a numerical illustration.
