Abstract: This paper describes theoretical estimation of domains mean using double sampling with a non-linear cost function in the presence of non-response. The estimation of domain mean is proposed using auxiliary information in which the study and auxiliary variable suffers from non-response in the second phase sampling. The expression of the biases and me... Show More
