Abstract

In this paper we propose a new estimator for the population variance using auxiliary information in simple random sampling . we derived a bias and mean square error equation of proposed estimator and compare with the bias and MSE of existing estimator and show that proposed estimator is more efficient than the existing estimators suggested by different authors such that Kadilar and Cingi (2005) [6] , Isaki(1983) [5]. We support this theoretical result with the help of a numerical illustration.
