Transmuted generalized Gompertz distribution with application

This paper introduces the four parameter transmuted generalized Gompertz distribution which includes the transmuted Gompertz, transmuted generalized exponential, transmuted exponential, Gompertz, generalized exponential and exponential distributions as special cases and studies its statistical properties. Explicit expressions are derived for the quantile, moments, moment generating function and entropies. Maximum likelihood estimation is used to estimate the model parameters. Finally, two applications of the new distribution is illustrated using reliability data sets.
