Abstract
The bootstrap method is compared with the classical (linearization) and jackknife procedures for estimating the mean square errors (MSEs) of the ratio estimator and the combined ratio estimator. The initial samples are considered to be selected without replacement, and different procedures for selecting the bootstrap samples with or without replacement from them are examined. The biases, stabilities, coverage probabilities and confidence widths of all the procedures are compared.
