This article develops a beta-exponentiated Ishita distribution that extends the exponentiated Ishita distribution. Expansions for the cumulative distribution and probability density functions are given. Various properties of the new distribution such as hazard function, moments, cumulants, skewness, kurtosis, mean deviations, Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, Renyi and Tsallis entropies, and stress-strength reliability are discussed. Moment generating function and characteristic function of the new model were derived. Distribution and the moment of order statistic have been derived. The method of maximum likelihood was used for estimation of parameters. The new model is quite flexible in analysing positively skewed data. Two real datasets are used to demonstrate the flexibility of the new distribution.
