Abstract
This paper proposes two ratio and product-type estimators using transformation based on known
minimum and maximum values of auxiliary variable. The biases and mean squared errors of the
suggested estimators are obtained under large sample approximation. Conditions are obtained
under which the suggested estimators are superior to the conventional unbiased estimator, usual
ratio and product estimators of population mean. The superiority of the proposed estimators are
also established through some natural population data sets
