Abstract

In this article, we introduce inverse Power Gompertz distribution with three parameters. Some statistical properties are presented such as hazard rate function, quartile, probability weighted (moments), skewness, kurtosis, entropies function, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves and order statistics. The model parameters are estimated by the method of maximum likelihood, least squares, weighted least squares and Cramérvon Mises. Further, Monte Carlo simulations are carried out to compare between all methods. Finally, the extended model is applied on a real data and the results are given and compared to other models.
