In the paper we compare performance of estimation methods for the two-parameter lognormal distribution via the Monte Carlo simulation. The comparison of performances is made with respect to their biases, variances, root mean square error. The methods are applied on real data set representing experimentally obtained values of ultimate tensile strength of material.
