Abstract

Here we develop an extended version of the modified intervened geometric distribution of Kumar and Sreeja (The Aligarh Journal of Statistics, 2014) and investigate some of its important statistical properties. Parameters of the distribution are estimated by various methods of estimation such as the method of factorial moments, the method of mixed moments and the method of maximum likelihood. The distribution has been fitted to a real life data set for illustrating its practical relevance.
