“…Many researchers also worked on imputation methods to deal with non-response and missing values among them include; Lee et al (1994), Singh and Horn (2000), Singh and Deo (2003), Toutenburg et al (2008), Singh (2009), Wang and Wang (2006), Kadilar and Cingi (2008), Diana and Perri (2010), Al-Omari et al (2013), Singh et al (2014), Gira (2015), Singh et al (2016), Bhushan and Pandey (2016), Prasad (2016), Audu et al (2020a,b,c), Audu et al (2021a,b,c,d), Audu and Singh (2021), Yusuf et al (2022). However, the estimators of the scheme proposed by Audu et al (2020a) and Pandey et al (2021) are functions of the unknown parameters of the study variable which makes the schemes and estimators impracticable in real life application unless if the unknown parameters are estimated using large sample which may required additional resources in the conduct of survey.
