Abstract
This paper considers a class of dual to product-cum-dual to ratio estimators for estimating finite population mean of the study variate using auxiliary variate. The bias and mean square error of the proposed estimator have been obtained. The asymptotically optimum estimator (AOE) in the class has also been identified along with its approximate bias and mean square error. Theoretical and empirical studies have been done to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed estimators over the other estimators.
