We introduce a four-parameter lifetime distribution called the odd log-logistic generalized Gompertz model to generalize the exponential, generalized exponential and generalized Gompertz distributions, among others. We obtain explicit expressions for the moments, moment-generating function, asymptotic distribution, quantile function, mean deviations and distribution of order statistics. The method of maximum likelihood estimation of parameters i s compared by six different methods of estimations with simulation study. The applicability of the new model is illustrated by means of a real data set.
