Abstract :
In the present paper, it has been proposed a new modified product estimator of population mean when the median of the auxiliary variable is known. The paper clearly states those product estimators are used when correlation between study variable and auxiliary variable is negative. Then we have defined the proposed estimator and derived bias, mean square error of the same. A theoretical analysis from comparison shows improved performance in our proposed estimator. Further from numerical study the calculated mean square error and bias stamps the performance. The paper ends by showing high rations of the existing estimator to the proposed one.
