Abstract
An optimum allocation with a class of estimators considered by Srivastava and Jhajj (1981) is obtained and its efficiency is compared with that of Neyman optimum allocation. It is found that the proposed allocation is always more efficient in the sense of having smaller mean square error than Neyman optimum allocation.
