Abstract
Using two-phase sampling mechanism, a regression-type estimator in the presence of the available knowledge on second auxiliary variable z is considered, when the population mean of the main auxiliary variable x is unknown. The suggested estimator is found to be more efficient tha n the usual two-phase regression estimator and the regression-type est imators suggested by Kiregyera.
