Description
Summary:This article studied the goodness-of-fit tests for the beta Gompertz distribution with four parameters based on a complete sample. The parameters were estimated by the maximum likelihood method. Critical values were found by Monte Carlo simulation for the modified Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling, Cramer-von Mises, and Lilliefors test statistics. The power of these test statistics founded the optimal alternative distribution. Real data applications were used as examples for the goodness of fit tests.
