Abstract

In this paper we have considered the Bayesian estimation under Type II for the shape parameter of the Finite Range distribution using linex loss function under quasi, natural conjugate and uniform prior distributions. These estimators are compared with the corresponding Bayes estimators under squared error loss function.
