Abstract

A multiple regression estimator has been developed by using information on “k” auxiliary variables. The mean square error has been obtained of the Multiple Regression estimator and comparison has been made with existing estimators for estimation of population characteristic.

Keywords:

Auxiliary variables , mean square error , regression estimator,
