Abstract
Let p be the proportion of a normal population in some tolerance region. The equivalence of two different forms of the minimum variance unbiased estimator of p given in the literature is indicated, and a third form is derived and used to obtain the variance of the estimator. For sample sizes of four and six the variance of the estimator is given explicitly and finally estimation of the variance for larger sample sizes is considered.
