✦ Synopsis

Let random samples of equal sizes be drawn from two exponential distributions with ordered means ),~. The maximum likelihood estimator A~ of ~ is shown to have a smaller mean square error than that of the usual estimator .~, for each i --1, 2. The asymptotic efficiency of A* relative to Xi has also been found.
