✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A class of almost unbiased ratio estimators for population mean σ is derived by weighting sample σ = (1/n) σ y~i~, ratio estimators σ and an estimator, σ (y~i~/x~i~). It is shown that NIETO DE PASCUAL (1961) estimator is a particular member of the class and an optimum estimator in the class (in the minimum variance sense) is identified. The results are illustrated through two numerical examples.

## Abstract The use of the negative binomial distribution in both the numerator and denominator in prospective studies leads to an unbiased estimate of the odds ratio and an exact expression for its variance. Sample sizes that minimize the variance of odds ratio estimates are specified. The varianc
