Abstract

The Remkan distribution is a two-parameter lifetime distribution that has been introduced into the literature to meet the ever-growing demand for the development of new lifetime distributions to meet the goodness of fit demand of complex datasets. The mathematical properties of the Remkan distribution have been derived in the literature. This study therefore aims to derive important statistical properties including the mode, quantile function, order statistics, entropy, stochastic ordering, average absolute deviation, and mid-point and Reliability indices such as the survivorship or existence measurement function, risk measurement function, and average residual measurement lifetime function.
