    Abstract: This article presents the problem of estimating the population mean using auxiliary information in the presence of measurement errors. We have compared the three proposed estimators being the exponential ratio-type estimator, Solanki et al. (2012) estimator, and the mean per unit estimator in the presence of measurement errors. Financial Model by G... Show More

    Abstract: We provide a new solution of diffusion fractional differential equation using fractal index and fractional sub-equation method. Also we shall impose a new solution for fraction Birnolli equation of arbitrary order using the fractal index method. As a result many exact solutions are obtained. It is shown that our considered method provides a very ef... Show More

    Abstract: Using monthly inflation data from January 2000 to December 2013, we find that SARIMA (1,1,1)(1,0,1)12 can represent the data behavior of inflation rate in Kenya well. Based on the selected model, we forecast seven (12) months inflation rates of Kenya outside the sample period (i.e. from January 2014 to December 2014). The observed inflation rates f... Show More
