Moment,Maximum likelihood estimators and Lindley’s approximation have been usedeffectively in Bayesian estimation. Based on Monte Carlo simulation method, thoseestimators are compared depending on the mean squared errors (MSE’s). The resultsshow that, the performance of the Bayes estimator under Entropy loss function isbetter than other estimates in all cases.
