Abstract
It is a common approach to adopt the statistical measures of the auxiliary variable such as correlation, coefficient of variation etc. for estimating the population mean. In this paper we propose novel estimators by adding an exponential parameter on the auxiliary variable. Theoretically, we obtain the mean square error (MSE) for all proposed estimators and we compare MSE equations of our proposed estimators and classical estimators. As a result of these comparisons, we observe that proposed estimators are always more efficient than classical estimators. These theoretical results are supported with the aid of a numerical and simulation examples.
