Abstract
In this paper, estimation of survey precision for nonlinear estimators is considered and an equation is presented based on sampling and nonsampling variances. Furthermore, by considering the response error model in surveys and the estimators of variance components, some relations are presented to computation of survey precision for nonlinear estimators. As an application case for the results, two typical data sets are considered and survey precisions of a nonlinear estimator are computed in the both data sets.
