RESUMO
This paper addresses new exponential estimators for population mean in case of non-response on both the study and the concomitant variables using simple random sampling. The expressions for theoretical bias and mean square error of new estimators are derived up to first-order approximation and comparisons are made with the existing estimators. The proposed estimators are observed more efficient as compared to the considered estimators in the literature. For instance, the classical [4] unbiased estimator, the estimator of [9], and other existing estimators under the explained conditions. The theoretical results are supported numerically by using real-life data sets, under the criteria of bias, mean square error, percent relative efficiency and mathematical conditions. It is also clear from the numerical results that the suggested exponential estimators performed better than the estimators in the literature.
