ABSTRACT In this paper suggested ratio and product type exponential estimator for ratio of two population mean. Bias and mean squared error of suggested estimator have been obtained suggested estimator have been compared with usual estimator, ratio estimator given by Singh (1965). An empirical study has been carried out to demonstrate the performance of suggested estimator.
KEYWORDS: Ratio and Product Type Estimator, Bias, Mean Square Error 1. INTRODUCTION This paper deals with the problem of estimation of ratio of two population means. Bahl and Tuteja (1991) suggested exponential type estimator of ratio of two population means. In this p we have proposed modified exponential type estimator for ratio of two population means. Suggested estimators have been compared with usual estimator and ratio type estimator. It has been shown that proposed estimators are more efficient than other considered estimators under certain given conditions. Let
U U1 , U2 ,...,U N be a finite population of size N and y 0 and y1 are two study variates. Let x , is a
auxiliary variate taking values xi (i 1,2,..., N ) . A sample of size n is drawn from N with simple random sampling without replacement an estimator of ratio of two population means.

7. CONCLUSIONS Estimation is a common problem in various field if agriculture, economics, population etc. where some parameters like population total, population mean population variance ratio of two population means etc need to be estimates. In this article we have considered the problem of estimating the population mean of the study variable when the population mean of an auxiliary variable is known in simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR). The class of estimators has been proposed and the bias and mean square error expressions of the proposed class of estimators have been obtained up to first degree of approximation.
